![]() However, I suspect that looking for them is a wast of time. Lastly if none of the commerical PVR will ignore the copy protection flag, are there any which use encryption which has been widely cracked? Living in the USA I am not in a position to tell you if there are any generic Chinese set-top PVRs for sale in the UK which will ignore the copy protection flag or any PVRs that will accept alternate firmware, or any PVRs that use an encryption method which has been cracked. But are there any PVR where you can load a custom linux distro on? Also what about none branded / Chinese manufactured PVR - do they really care about making sure their software implements copy protection? You said that it isn't likely that Freeview HD DVRs that use their EPG will ignore the copy protection flag. You could check on the Venton, based on the Linux Enigma PVR, but I don't know if there is a UK suitable model? I would pose your question to the UK Topfield users forum Many years ago I has a Topfield 5000 and both the Australian forum, long defunct and the UK forum were very helpful. Plus I am looking for a pvr that will allow me to plug in an external usb hard drive and play media files from it.ĭoes anyone know of anything that may be suitable? Are there any models which allow HD transfer without encryption or encryption that is easily cracked? From what I understand most models only allow SD content transfer. I am based in the UK and am looking for a PVR that will record Freeview and enable me to transfer unencrypted HD videos from the PVR to a PC. If your want to record independently before transfer to your PC you need the unit I linked to, the splitter/stripper and the hauppuage or similar. If you just want to record what you are viewing on your existing Freeview box your still need the splitter/stripper and the hauppuage or similar.ħ. Whilst this is described as a PVR it is really a capture device which was the 2nd piece of equipment I was referring to.Ħ. The difference with this is that the recording is not done by your freeview box but by connecting that to the hauppuage and it is your PC that does the recording. You are probably thinking more like a Hauppauge PVR or similar which connects to the PC via USB. Since you mention USB I think I know where you are coming from. A tv is hdcp compliant so will process that but of you want to get the recording on to a PC you need more equipment.ĥ. I tried to explain the simple fact that any HD recording is encrypted. The recordings stay in the unit just as they do with a SKY HD+ BoxĤ. So again it is connected to the tv with a hdmi cableģ. I assumed that you want to turn this existing setup to one that can record the tv programs also in HD. If the box is HD then you are connecting this to your tv with a hdmi cable.Ģ. You probably have at present a simple freeview box with no recording capability. I will try to expand but, hopefully, simplify my reply.ġ. The integration into the home network as well as the possible Internet connection round off the overall package of the Unibox HD eco+.Maybe I also misunderstood what you were asking. Not only USB PVR recordings are possible, but also direct recordings on an optional internal 2.5" inch hard disk (Attention: delivered without PVR function). In addition, the HD eco+ with the new processor is characterised by fast switching times, clear menu navigation, extensive setting and expansion options and outstanding HD picture quality. It is delivered with a built-in 2x DVB-C/T2 HDTV tuner.
