Good Luck, Let us know of your success!! The problem with the Blackmagic card is it will not work when HDCP copy protection is required such as would be the case connected to a satellite or cable receiver. Now you have a couple of options, but software capture of Directv2PC video is NOT one of them unfortunately!! Unless someone knows of an app that can capture Directv2PC video or can decrypt the Directv HDDs? This may be simpler, more future tolerant than something with its own HDD but I can not speak from any experience with it. They offer analog to HDMI input cables, and IIRC, all copy protections are lost with analog inputs. Other than the previous suggestions, that is the only way I know of backing up D* media. If you ever lost it on your DVR you could reboot the dvr from the eSata. You could clone the dvr hard drive to a backup eSata. Right now I can't think of anyway to do it, other then copying it to my PC and saving it as an MPEG. Just wondering if it is at all possible to copy a recording on my DirecTV DVR to my PC? I appeared on a recording and I would like to save it, in HD.
