Has anyone managed to offload recorded films/tv programmes from their Bluewin hard-drive onto another media ?
I don't get time to watch them before the disk starts emptying to make space for the kids' recordings !!

I have exactly the same question

I notice there is a USB port on the front of the box but I think this not useful for me - rather to load new software.

my mate doesn't bother. He just downloads them off P2P networks.

Fair use, innit?

I think we have the same mates.

I'd prefer to think that our mates have better things to do than try long-winded processes which are prone to failure.

This stems from the day when I taught my mate the KISS principle.....

I use an elgato video capture device to record it to my Mac (in playback mode).
