[HD+ Query] Current data will be lost on External Device?

[Jenitkumar]

I wish to own Airtel HD+ STB, As I have 1TB External HDD, I can plug to it and record without any worry.

=> But, In Dishtv's Similar product, I read an answer to FAQ that All data present on external USB device i.e. HDD will required to be formatted before you start recording. I didn't found such FAQ on ADTV website, but I afraid.

=> How can I use ON demand TV with same STB If I have modem with WiFi?

the first thing the STB will do is to format the storage device is a format that it could read, hence all existing data will be lost....

i am not sure whether airtel provides wifi installation, any adtv user can help you. but i know that you can connect the modem via ethernet and use it...

It is not acceptable the data loss in case of 1TB data.

They have mentioned in picture about Wifi airtel On Demand Digital TV Subscription

One more Query I have is, I can watch the recordings on My windows PC or not?

No, you can't watch on a windows pc. its encrypted. linux system can open it.

 

[Jenitkumar]

thanks.

which dth provides such facility?

 

[Bapun]

none, all dths copyright their content and you can play recorded contents inside the stb only. else you can connect dth to pc via tv tuner and record.
