Which of their devices if any permit this? This product has been discontinued. Nov 7, Auburn AL. I bought this about 3 years ago. Hauppauge As was mentioned by Buster, you have to play off of the DVR in order to make a computer readable file mp4 for me.

I do not have a dvd recorder and have not owned a vcr for over 10 years. Perhaps I am wrong and this can't be done but you would think it would be possible There are some threads on this subject, if you care to do a search. I doubt that they've made it any easier with newer DVRs.
This is NOT encrypted; it is human-readable text for the most part. Drive size limits are locked in firmware, so can't be exceeded until a new firmware is released by Motorola.
Long wait. IOW, you can put in a new HD of any larger size, but the max available would still be or GB, depending upon model, no matter what. For the present, those are the ONLY options. This goes for most of the Moto boxes some have less choice than that. Ok, so basically from what you are telling me this is not worth the effort. It's just not that important. I'm kind of shocked that the copy protection is that big of an issue.
Every other protection out there can be beat You would think there would be a way around that. Shit, I only want to get a few shows from the G4 channel Anyway, thanks for the info. Otherwise, yeah, it's a mess best left alone. Cornucopia is correct. If you're not satisfied, we're not done!

I've recorded numerous programs from my cable box. Basically, you have to install the drivers for the Motorola brand DVR. Once installed and rebooted, start the capture program and play back the program.
Once captured, convert the stream to the format you desire, or burn it to DVD. Of course, you have to have a Firewire port on your PC. I have an old Pinnacle Studio card that still works quite well. After 3 years the people who cared are no longer waiting for answers and they've either found a solution or moved on with their lives. Future readers need to know that. The author is completely uninterested in writing 64 bit versions of his drivers. People have tried in desperation to pay others to write the 64 bit drivers.
ALL of those efforts have ended in failure. I am computer savvy, and can clearly see a Seagate GB hard drive through the air vents. After reading this thread, I gather that I cannot simply connect a male to male USB cable into the box and copy directly - so If i can get the box open without harming anything, would there be any problem with connecting the Seagate GB via ribbonwire to my pc as a slave drive, and directly copying files that way?
I don't really care about encryption, as I should be able to reverse this and copy back to the new box when I get it. Though, a viewable digital copy would be ideal.
Seems i would need a special socket head. Has anyone successfully attempted this or know where to obtain this tool? Originally Posted by Marcomarco. Thanks Jim, but i wonder about that. A file is a file Any automotive store should carry them.
And you'll still have to deal with encrypted media on the disk too. Comcast uses a Linux disk partition. The link I provided has a post by Cornucopia one of our stronger technical members here that tells basically how to play the video and capture it in real-time to a PC.
Not really what you wanted, but it looks like a case of it being all you can do with the box. I might save some headaches and do just the capture. Similar Threads getting recordings off comcast dvr By Knightmessenger in forum Capturing.
