Morning all from sunny Somerset,
We have a relatively old but functional Sky HD box from 2010 (Amstrad 890 something or other). It's getting a bit sluggish and we are constantly fighting for space or its tiny 500gb drive, so was thinking about upgrading it to the 2Tb model.
My question is whether I can transfer our recordings from one to the other. I know there's a program called ExPVR which can apparently do this but will the new box still play the recordings from encrypted channels with the original card? I get the card paired to the new box.
Also, is the drive in my 890 box SATA or IDE? And does ExPVR work with SATA/IDE to USB converters?
