Will the Infinitv 6 record directly to network attached storage or will it record to a usb hardrive using the USB port it has?

No, the tuners need to be set up in software such as Windows Media Center, J River Media Center, or another program that has support for CableCard tuners. Note that Windows Media Center is the only software that has support for recording channels with DRM. Some cable systems only use DRM on premium channels such as HBO, while others use DRM on many channels. The USB port is for connection to a tuning adapter (TA) if your cable system uses them.

The Infinity 6 is designed to work with Windows Media System, windows decides where the content is saved NOT the Infinity 6.

Neither. It requires a PC with Windows Media Center to record encrypted cable (DRM) via cable card. The USB port is connectivity for a Tuning Adapter for cable systems that require one to tune Switched Digital channels (Time Warner, etc).

No, it require Media Center to record for DRM reasons as well as the NAS or USB would have no way to tune to a channel.

I don't have this hard drive yet, they have not sent it back to me. But it is not a network storage device, it connects to your computer via firewire or USB. At least that's what it should do.

I'm sorry, but I can't answer the question because the software was never able to show the "destination" drive. I contacted support and they weren't able to get it to work, either.

I wish I could help you but neither the book or the box gives you a maximum on storage. It just says you have to use an external USB drive. I am using an HP simple save that I think is 500 G and it works for me but I just record TV shows.

As far as I know - yes. I have Uverse and have not found anything it won't record, in contrast to before I put the Grex in the system. Remember to record for personal use only!

If you have a DVR type receiver or a HD attached and registered with the appropriate receiver. I have a VIP211z with a 1TB USB drive attached and it works fine.

Since the recording is done at a PC that is connected to the same router, the recording time will depend on the size of your hard drive. Will use about 1GB a day and future model will have a rollover feature but not as of now.

I am using USB 3 and performance is reasonable. Using Windows 8.1 Storage Spaces with full parity, I am getting ~20-40 MB/sec throughput on writes. I would recommend it for archive and backups. Not sure about the throughput yet for something like an active media server.

Thanks so this is just a format, and then it is plug and play only needs to be mounted with super user permission to write to the drive (something we do every day in Linux) I was concerned that it might have some sort of proprietary software interface and could not be used outside of Mac & Microsoft operating systems. The backup software I believe would not be Linux compatible, but Clonezilla does that task rather well... Thanks Linas Vepstas for your hands on response...MT

I haven't been using the still feature mode. I just record video AVI's. There is no USB connector on the TLC200. The files are stored on an SD card and you use a card reader to read the files on your computer. If being able to read the files on a SD reader counts.... then yes????

I previously owned a Toshiba DVR that would record,to the hard drive,all cables channels.That was in the analog days.The previously mentioned DVD/VCR recorder will not record anything to DVD or video tape that is on certain cable channels (Discovery,for example).It contains a QAM digital tuner. Are you saying that the Magnovox MDR515H will not record the copyguarded channels,even to it's hard drive ? I do not intend to attempt to make DVD copies,just time shift programming.I know,of course,the DVRs provided by the cable company will do this with all channels provided.

Hi&#65292;it could realize recording without hard driver&#65292;it can not storage and playback video without hard driver. Thanks&#65281;

This unit will record but you need an external USB storage device. I bought a 1 TB 3.0 usb hard drive and it works perfectly. It can hold hundreds of hours of programming.

As previously answered you can use a usb thumb drive to recod to. The unitg does no have any internal memory for recording. I use a 1T external hard drive. I find the the quality of rcording to be indistinguishable from the original.

There is nothing built in the dvr that would do it but there may be something you can buy from another company to connect to the network port but I have not checked into it. I will say that the wired network port is very stable and we use several of these in an industrial setting and have never had trouble accessing the DVR over the network when we need it. You would need to see if there is some wireless adapter somebody sells that can convert the network port to wireless but I do not know if they exist as I have never looked.

I tried to do this, but the device doesn't work with a hard drive. I wish they would make a version with a DVR or hard drive storage.

thanks for checking with us ! The HD camera provides a local storage solution, recording video directly onto a microSD memory card with up to 128GB capacity (sold seperately). Set your camera for continuous recording or, to minimize viewing time and storage space, for recording only when motion events are detected. The saved video can be remotely viewed from any computer or Android or iOS device. And the HD camera also provide network storage solution, such as NAS & NVR drives, like Synology, ASUSTOR and QNAP. With ONVIF 2.0 compatible for systems integration, the camera can record to any NAS
