Keller, TX | Capping to computer. I have no hopes at all that it will talk to a USB/Firewire HD...
What the heck, I have a 1TB drive sitting next to me, I'll take it home to try. |

1 edit | Yeah, I had tried that the same day I had it installed. I tried HDNET and I think Discovery HD, but no go. It looks like the 5C encryption is set for the national channels, as you said. You must have a device that will recognize the 5c encyption and allow you to record this (depending on what the 5c setting are for that show/channel). At this point I believe only a DVHS deck has that. |

As far as extending the hard drive space for the STB, my STB does not have any SATA connectors on it, like the DCT-6412 phase III does. |
