    Setting up Dbox2 to record

    Does anybody know of a tutorial that explains how to setup your dbox to record?

    I know that when you go into the dbox options there is always a section deticated to 'record'.


    Is it simple as buying a harddrive and just fitting it to yer box ?

          Recording on a DBOX 2

          Is there a maximum Har Drive size for DBox2.
          I currently use my own server for the recording function
          Just wondered what maximum size the box would actually see.

            Why don't you just do a search. Go to the downloads section and download some guides and see if theres any help in there. In other words try to help your self first rather than waiting for someone to breastfeed you.

            THE TRUTH
            The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

            Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
            The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

                    Ive been looking around and i think it might just be as easy to buy myself a eurovox ex5000 pvr.

                    Seems like alot of fiddling around to set up the Dbox2.
