A rep told me over the phone that they do have PIP, but I have searched for hours and found no confirmed evidence of that. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Was the guy just flat lying?

Is it possible to have PIP with a DirecTV set up? This is not the same question as above. In other words can a Dual DirecTV receiver (or two receivers) be connected to a TV as separate inputs to get PIP?

Many who use a modern DVR for any length of time lose interest in PIP once they become accustomed to recording their favorite programs and/or watching on a time-delay. That's why you tend not to see an outpouring of requests for PiP support.

If you don't yet have a new DirecTV DVR, I would spend at least a month or two with it before you worry about PiP.
