Power off - dumb question

So, I just got DirecTv installed and have a simple question.

 

If I set up a program to record then power off the DVR (using the remote), will it wake up to record the program.  Or do I need to leave the DVR on 24/7?

Yes, it will power up.  "Off" is really more like a "standby".  The DVR is never really off unless you pull the ac power.
