I am having problems recording to the Dreambox 7000S. It is the first version with a blue panel which is supposed to have a poor power supply design.
It has 3.5" HDD and USB Flash 8GB and both record badly on almost all FTA channels.
Before the USB flash, I thought that the HDD is not getting enough power from the PSU, but after installing the flash, I am still getting a poor *.ts file with pixelization.
Tried to disable the HDD mount, and record only to the USB flash, but still no joy.
If I record to a DVD recorder (DVR), the picture is excellent.
So it is the recording that is causing the problem.
But I need a *.ts file which is created only with the HDD or the USB flash.
Do I need to physically disconnect the HDD in order to neutralize the HDD completely from the system?
Would using a 2.5" HDD give me better recordings?
When I test the *.ts file with projectX, it shows a lot of errors at the begining and after getting more than 500 errors, it stops listing the errors and end up with demuxing video and audio files that has less time duration than the original.
I don't want to replace the receiver.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
