Re: Comcast/Motorola do $1billion purchase deal

Well I'm glad they are going to keep using motorola. Even with all of the problems its a heck of a box. When they get all of the issues fixed I'm sure they will start working on some new features such as getting the firewire ports active to work with external HD's. There will be plenty of other upgrades possible now that comcast has decided to go full force with the box. Of coures this is just speculation on my part but I feel that if they are going to make such a big investment they will go ahead and get all of the features working on the 6412.

The greatest part is that I work across the road from the Motorola plant.

I have a DCT-6200 and I have no problems hooking it up via Firewire to my Mac Mini and recording HD to it.

So your saying that you can already use thew FW port to add storage to your 6412? It doesn't seem to work on my machine maybe there's a trick/hack. I'm using a PC but that shouldn't make any difference though.

I've got a Mac maybe I'll hook it up and see what I can come up with. If you had to use a fix/hack of some sort please post.

Same here...I use firewire to my JVC DVHS with no problems. I did have problems with my older non DVR HD unit (forgot which DCT it was) but my dual tuner DVR streams just fine. Putting tons of HD content (eg LOTR) on HD-DVHS.
