Adelphia, Southern California’s largest cable operator, announced today that Adelphia Cable customers in Ventura County can now enjoy an entirely new cable television experience that provides unprecedented choice, convenience, and control.   The company is introducing Adelphia DVR with Moxi, a digital video recording system that enables viewers to watch any television program whenever they want.Much easier to use than a VCR, Adelphia DVR allows customers to pause and rewind live TV and to record a full season of their favorite shows, simply by clicking on the title, instead of setting day, time, and channel. It works with both standard and high-definition televisions, and allows viewers to watch one show while recording another—or even to record two shows at the same time while they play back a third.  Adelphia DVR uses a Motorola set-top box with Moxi software and interactive guide. Designed for casual browsing and rapid search, the Moxi Menu allows viewers fast access to current and future listings and breakthrough simplicity of operation. The Adelphia DVR has two high definition tuners and hard disk storage for up to 60 hours of standard definition programming or 8-15 hours for HDTV programs.The series-recording feature will find and record a program even if the network changes its time slot.   “Adelphia DVR will radically change the way our customers watch television,” said Mariann Belmonte, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Adelphia.  “Adelphia DVR will allow viewers the freedom to watch television around their own schedule, instead of the networks’.   It’s the ultimate in flexibility and convenience.   Once customers try this feature, they’ll never want to give it up.”  Adelphia DVR with Moxi offers a user-friendly experience with:  •  Pause and instant replay on live TV•  Single program or series recordings by titles•  Two weeks of guide data to help customers plan viewings and set recordings
•  Rapid and responsive menu browsing•  Smart search using title or keywords•  Option to record first-run episodes only and avoid repeats•  Favorite channels menu giving customers quick access to their most-watched channels•  Easy-to-browse categories for movies, sports, kids, news and music Adelphia will exchange customers’ current set-top box for the Adelphia DVR set-top box upon request. Adelphia DVR equipment (box and remote control) can be leased for $7.95 per month, which is a tremendous advantage over the hundreds of dollars that competitors charge.  In addition, Adelphia DVR service is very competitively priced at $4.95 a month. Ventura County residents can order Adelphia DVR by calling 866-9GET-DVR (866-943-8387).  As the largest cable provider in Southern California, Adelphia provides a full range of entertainment and communication services to more than 1.2 million households, including basic and digital cable television, DVR, HDTV, OnDemand and high-speed Internet access.
