Ifs linux ext3 format but the files are saved directly in the scambled state and only the orginal keycard which is not going to be reusable on new box can decode them. Based on the new model you got the usb port can off load and reload dvr recordings from main drive, you can backup those to say a blueray and keep a copy to play back whenever.rokytnji wrote:Funny you mention recording and saving shows.
My Dish Network receiver suffered a lightning strike spike and has been on the fritz since then. They are sending me a new receiver and said I did not need to ship them back my old one. I figure the hard drive is what suffered a stroke.
So the plan is to pull it out of the reciever. Connect it to my external adapter cables.
See If I can pull anything off it with my linux boxes. This will be a 1st for me digging
into a satellite dish receiver. Virgin territory so to speak. So I may just be spinning my
wheels on this project and going no where. Or I might be rebuilding a used receiver.
Only way I know how is to try.
Do the Dish boxes auto-delete as well? I know that certain cable boxes will do that, sometimes without telling you if you don't change it in their configuration.Ted Dog wrote:oh before you guys start slapping usb drives into the port be aware the dish machines expects to OWN it and will format it and reformat it at will without user input. Also it will ask if you want to use it for DVR function ( say no ) in that mode it TOTALLY replaces the internal HD you want it for BACKUPS which is not a stated option. If you screw this up you need to call tech and pay the external DVR fee ( about 30 bucks )

I like snafu in the lead role, hopes his version of reality gets ever more

Hold up. So you format, then toss and shoot, then use the drives?rokytnji wrote:I have.Anyone else still watching?
I have not messed with the old dvr after setting up the new one.
Not a priority lately.
Dealing with new member ship since AntiX 15 went final instead.
Drilling drives. Us country boys have 7mm Magnum rifles to drill
a hard while drinking beer and target practicing.
Shock of impact helps the wiping.
For trout line sinkers.then use the drives?
Was E Corp listed as a hardware company? I thought they were one of those "hands in many baskets" type corps. Like Microsoft if they became really demented.Lobster wrote:Mr Robot is fun
Who is not working for 'Evil Corp' or running on Evil Corp hardware?
