UPC HD box

haymur

Can anyone tell me what are the in and out connections on the current (July 2012) UPC HD PVR box. Also how big is the HDD on this box. I have tried to get the info on the UPC site but they are not there. I have a older silver Thompson box but it needs rebooting on a weekly bases and I want to upgrade to HD.

I can not remember but I am almost sure that the HD box disk is twice the size of the silver box whatever that is.

Thanks Colm for photo and list. I presume the ethernet is not usable and the recording hours are for SD recordings

Taken from http://www.upc.ie/television/digitalplushd/

It's 140 recording hours of SD programming compared to 80 hours on the non-HD box

I dunno, I haven't got a hd subscription, thought it was twice as much space as a normal dvr but I rarely record stuff
