Record HD video via FireWire -- revisited
It would be helpful if anyone successfully playing this game reported what equipment supplied the HD source signal.
Record HD video via FireWire -- revisited
Details: any firewire-out enabled box... in my case, the Motorola 6200 series. I believe the Motorola 64xx series also supports that as well.
Record HD video via FireWire -- revisited
I have a SA 3250HD, running Passport 3.3 build 029, from TWC that works fine. I can record any Copy-Freely HDTV channel TWC carries in my area.
Legally, there are federal regulations stating that they have to provide you with a STB with an active FW port. I experienced a lot of ignorance and a decent uphill battle to convince my local TWC provider of this, but in theory if they don't follow these regulations they face fines and the possibility of losing their charter to provide cable services in your city. At the very least, you should try and get a service credit for as long as they can't get your STB working properly. See this link to Section 76.640 of the Federal Telecommunications Regulations if you need more information to convince them. Specifically, subsections (b)(4)(i) and (b)(4)(ii), located at the end of the section, apply.
The Answer to Your Problems
The 8300HD has a firewire port, but it is not enabled. That is the root of all your problems. This is a HUGE bummer because you can't mix a HD-DVR and HD recording unless you get 2 boxes... and TWC has an stupidly expensive extra charge for two boxes, |
