1. A method, comprising: providing a web portal capable of communicating with a first digital video recorder;receiving channel lineup information for the first digital video recorder, wherein the channel lineup comprises a list of channels selected based on one or more lineup preferences;displaying the channel lineup information through the web portal;receiving, through a web portal client interface, a plurality of commands for the first digital video recorder to execute a function;storing the plurality of commands in a first transaction file;receiving, from the first digital video recorder, a request for the first transaction file; andin response to the request, transmitting the first transaction file to the first digital video recorder, wherein the first transaction file includes the plurality of commands. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving, through the web portal, a second command for the operation of a second digital video recorder different from the first digital video recorder;storing the second command in a second transaction file;receiving, from the second digital video recorder, a request for the second transaction file; andin response to the request, transmitting the second transaction file to the second digital video recorder. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more lineup preferences comprise a preference to delete a channel from program guide information. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the list of channels is further selected based on whether a channel is available to the first digital video recorder. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of commands comprises at least one command selected from the group of commands consisting of: a command to add a request to record a show, a command to add a channel to a channel guide, a commands to delete a request to record a show, a command to delete a channel from the channel guide, and a command to modify a parameter of a channel of the channel guide. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the first transaction file is formatted using the eXtended Markup Language (XML). 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising: after receiving the first transaction file, parsing the first transaction file into one or more requests, the one or more requests including a request to perform at least one command of the plurality of commands; andperforming the one or more requests using the first digital video recorder. 8. A device, comprising: a processor;a non-transitory memory unit, configured to store at least instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the device to perform actions comprising: providing a web portal capable of communicating with a first digital video recorder;receiving channel lineup information for the first digital video recorder, wherein the channel lineup comprises a list of channels selected based on one or more lineup preferences;displaying the channel lineup information through the web portal;receiving, through a web portal client interface, a plurality of commands for the first digital video recorder to execute a function;storing the plurality of commands in a first transaction file;receiving, from the first digital video recorder, a request for the first transaction file; andin response to the request, transmitting the first transaction file to the first digital video recorder, wherein the first transaction file includes the plurality of commands. 9. The device of claim 8, wherein the actions further comprise: receiving, through the web portal, a second command for the operation of a second digital video recorder different from the first digital video recorder;storing the second command in a second transaction file;receiving, from the second digital video recorder, a request for the second transaction file; andin response to the request, transmitting the second transaction file to the second digital video recorder. 10. The device of claim 8, wherein the one or more lineup preferences comprise a preference to delete a channel from program guide information. 11. The device of claim 8, wherein the list of channels is further selected based on whether a channel is available to the first digital video recorder. 12. The device of claim 8, wherein the plurality of commands comprises at least one command selected from the group of commands consisting of: a command to add a request to record a show, a command to add a channel to a channel guide, a commands to delete a request to record a show, a command to delete a channel from the channel guide, and a command to modify a parameter of a channel of the channel guide. 13. The device of claim 8, wherein the first transaction file is formatted using the eXtended Markup Language (XML). 14. The device of claim 8, wherein the actions further comprise: after receiving the first transaction file, parsing the first transaction file into one or more requests, the one or more requests including a request to perform at least one command of the plurality of commands; andperforming the one or more requests using the first digital video recorder. 15. A non-transitory computer readable memory, configured to store at least instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor of a device, cause the device to perform actions comprising: providing a web portal capable of communicating with a first digital video recorder;receiving channel lineup information for the first digital video recorder, wherein the channel lineup comprises a list of channels selected based on one or more lineup preferences;displaying the channel lineup information through the web portal;receiving, through a web portal client interface, a plurality of commands for the first digital video recorder to execute a function;storing the plurality of commands in a first transaction file;receiving, from the first digital video recorder, a request for the first transaction file; andin response to the request, transmitting the first transaction file to the first digital video recorder, wherein the first transaction file includes the plurality of commands. 16. The non-transitory computer readable memory of claim 15, wherein the actions further comprise: receiving, through the web portal, a second command for the operation of a second digital video recorder different from the first digital video recorder;storing the second command in a second transaction file;receiving, from the second digital video recorder, a request for the second transaction file; andin response to the request, transmitting the second transaction file to the second digital video recorder. 17. The non-transitory computer readable memory of claim 15, wherein the one or more lineup preferences comprise a preference to delete a channel from program guide information. 18. The non-transitory computer readable memory of claim 15, wherein the list of channels is further selected based on whether a channel is available to the first digital video recorder. 19. The non-transitory computer readable memory of claim 15, wherein the plurality of commands comprises at least one command selected from the group of commands consisting of: a command to add a request to record a show, a command to add a channel to a channel guide, a commands to delete a request to record a show, a command to delete a channel from the channel guide, and a command to modify a parameter of a channel of the channel guide. 20. The non-transitory computer readable memory of claim 15, wherein the first transaction file is formatted using the eXtended Markup Language (XML). 21. The non-transitory computer readable memory of claim 15, wherein the actions further comprise: after receiving the first transaction file, parsing the first transaction file into one or more requests, the one or more requests including a request to perform at least one command of the plurality of commands; andperforming the one or more requests using the first digital video recorder.
