Abstract
Digital video recorder (DVR) methods and apparatus are described. By combining DVR and on-demand functionality a large number of programs selected by a user can be made available to the DVR user and may be included in a single content availability list. The list may indicate whether the recording is available via an on-demand service or is locally recorded/stored content. When the user selects content for recording a check is automatically made to determine if the content is available via an on-demand server. If the content is available via an on-demand server the user is provided the opportunity to choose between the content being recorded by the DVR or being added to the recordings list but supplied via the on-demand server. In some embodiments the user may select the DVR to default to on-demand content supply as opposed to local recording when the content is available for on-demand delivery.
