DirecTV has quietly updated both its iPad app and HR34 DVR with a variety of new features for Satellite-loving customers. The application will now resume from where you left off, comes with a much improved search function and best of all, a direct line into the company's support forums. Meanwhile, the HR34 swallowed a software package that included Pandora, a YouTube landing page and more readable closed captions amongst a raft of other nips and tucks. The former will be available through the app store, while the latter should have arrived on your box overnight, well before you start on that CSI marathon.

This was quite the update for DirecTV, from a resume button on their iPad app to Pandora and YouTube on the HR34. It is just a shame that the HR34 still only has 200 hours of HD recording time for all those receivers, but subscribers will be consoled with music from Pandora and pimple popping zits being player on their television via You Tube. When Dish updated my Hopper in April, they not only added Pandora, they also doubled my recording space for HD shows to 500 hours. Not to brag but that gives me 60% more storage space for all my shows. I have to record everything I want to watch, or even think I will watch since I work nights at Dish and I’m never home to watch television and if I only had 200 hours of HD recording time, the family and myself would spend all our time deleting shows instead of watching them.
