Re: IMG 1.7 September (some news)

said by ravensfan55:

Bigger DVR or at least enabling eSATA would be nice, 160GB doesn't go very far during football season.
I finally went back to Tivo.Had the first generation than gave it up when comcast released there first dvr. 20hrs of HD isn't squat. Now I have 144hrs with tivo+external.

How is an IMG upgrade going to make a hard drive bigger?

They are talking about the IMG upgrade finally allowing the eSata or USB ports to be used to attach an external hard drive allowing to add more hard drive space.

I didn't mean to make it sound like 1.7 was actually going to feature that. I was just letting DCFan know how an IMG upgrade could have allowed for the ability to use a bigger hard drive.

You should not expect the existing Motorola DVRs to ever support drive expansion. This is not Verizon's choice.

Verizon does plan to adopt Cisco DVRs with greater capacity, but those may not be widely available for 6-9 months. Those should allow drive expansion, although not necessarily at release.

IMG 1.7 will address a number of the HDMI compatibility / interoperability issues.

Man I'm going to let that misunderstanding be mine due to english being my second language and all.

Cause i could swear you implied that you read in the article about esat, which led me to quickly go back to the link and search for esata and usb and both came up zilch!
