Odd. I have 2 Directv receivers in 2 different rooms. Had the same cable news channel channel on both, when a commercial break came on. One receiver aired a commercial for a medical alert bracelet, and the other had a commercial for DirecTV. When the break ended both boxes went back to the same show.

Which boxes do you have?  I'm guessing they are different.  I've heard their DVRs can do 'local' commercials, whole the non-DVRs cannot.  Because the local commercials sit on the DVR.
