I have just installed the new dvr (GSH(9865) and am using the urc 8829 remote. (same as used with the old dvr.  I can do most things that it is supposed to do as an upgrade but I can not get the picture in picture to work as I could with the old dvr.  Any suggestions as I use this feature a lot during football season.

Your old DVR has PIP? I don't think any of the Cisco equipment offers it. Sorry

My original Cisco/SA 8240 running SARA had PIP. When it was first updated to Passport it still had PIP. Only when I upgraded to my Cisco 8642 with Trio (Contour) did I lose PIP. Rumors are that a later version of Trio (Contour) might include PIP, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Note: The 9865HDC supports PIP. Trio (Contour) just doesn't. See Table 4:
