Genie Compatibility with HR24 HD receivers

I have 3 HR24 HD receivers in my account, I would like to add a Genie to my account.  Can the Genie work and communicate with my 3 HR24 HD receivers?

If so can the HR24 receivers view the programs saved in the Genie?  Also can the Genie view the programs recorded in the HR24 HD receivers?

Thanks you,

Your HDDVRs work with the regular Genie line (HR34, HR44, HR54). They can see each other's recordings. If you are adding a TV, then you will have another $7 on the monthly bill. Also $3 Whole Home DVR if you don't already have it.

Do NOT get the Genie-2 (HS17). That forbids your HDDVRs which would be a downgrade.
