R5000-HD Digital Video Recorder Kit for Dish Network Overviews

The R5000-HD digital video recording system is a modification added to your set top box (STB) providing loss-less digital capture directly to your PC. A dedicated USB connector is added for streaming pristine quality MPEG data to your PC hard drive or other connected storage device (including D-VHS). This single connection is all that is required (no external IR blasters are needed). Easy to use DVR software for scheduling recordings via the TitanTV website “click to record” feature or integrate the R5000-HD with the popular SageTV Media Center (extra charges apply).

The R5000-HD differs from other DVRs in that the recordings are not re-encoded but rather an exact facsimile of the data received by your STB. Other devices which connect externally to your STB’s analog outputs convert the signals back into the digital domain and then re-encode (compress) them via an MPEG algorithm. This is a “lossy” process which degrades image quality. When playing back a recording made via the R5000-HD, it will be identical to when you watched it live.

Another important aspect of PC-based systems such as this is the ability to archive unlimited amounts of material (STB DVRs have limited internal storage and require you to eventually delete material – there is no way to “off load” recordings). Furthermore you have the ability to share the content freely around your home and with other devices.

The modification made to your STB is sophisticated in its simplicity since it is completely passive. In other words it does not affect the operation of your STB in any way. You can go on using it as if the R5000-HD does not exist.

Software supports any number of connected devices (limited by available USB ports); can record from up to 4 R5000-HD modified tuners simultaneously SageTV Media Center integration is fully supported (additional charges apply for “multi-instance” and SageTV software packages, SageTV purchased separately).
