    F5 as PVR recording to local server?

    I want to set-up a raspberry pi serverto serve up all my music, documents, photos and if possiblerecording and playback tv from my Skybox F5.
    Then I am hoping I can access the .ts F5 files from any deviceconnected to my network?

    Anyway to setup network recording?
    Is this achievable, anyone doing anything similar?

    cheers

    Network Recording and Access not on the F5, Up your budget to something like an E2 Linux receiver the F5's are plug & Play and thats all they are good for watching TV

      Ah Ok I thought this might not be possible, OK will take a look at the E2 Linux receivers - am liking the look of the tm nano and venton hd2 at the moment. can'y quite stretch to a vu+ solo2

            Not really the Nano is the cheapest followed by the Maxdigital XP1000 and then your into the venton series
