I have a HD-PVR with recorded stuff that I want to send to the PC to save to disk.So I don't loose it when the hard drives on the PVR become full.Does anyone know how to do this? I'm not sure if a HD TV capture card can do this? Any suggestion would help tremendously. cheers gig

Does it have an output socket for hooking up to a PC?

Use of a TV tuner card would work but at a snail's pace since the transfer would have to be analogue - the PC recording each recorderd item at playback speed.

Alternately you could open the PVR up, remove the hard drive and connect it to your PC either as an internal drive or externally using a SATA/IDE to USB adaptor. :)
