I own the dish network DVR I am just wondering if there is a way to record some of the programs or shows in ts format and transfer them to PC so that I could watch them whenever possible.

Not trying to do something illegal but just want to be efficient. Besides, what are the components or hardware that I have to purchase? Hope somebody could help as I am a complete noob about this.

So TB worth of data if you want You can cut out the middle man per say and not have to pay monthly box rental fees and still stream to up to 4 tvs in the house.

I made a thread about it not long ago as I'm looking into it and starting to get mine put together. There is a gent on here by the name of RonInTexas.

He is extremely knowledgeable about media centers and might be able to answer your data transfer questions too. It will save you money and no hassle on transferring data. Could ya tell me a bit more about Media Center? Because contents of dish network are encrypted and will that work with Media Center? Yes it will work with Dish also.

And directv and cable etc. Here is a great forum for more advice. It too will help you get more info. Ronintexas is the one that helped me out so check out this thread. Wolfshadw Splendid Moderator.

To my knowledge, this is the only way to get Dish Network content onto a PC.

Wolf is right and I apologize for jumping the gun and assuming. IT appears there are no tuner cards because dish services dish and directv have basically made it illegal for such devices to be made. Not because they can't. That really sucks. Thank you Wolf for fixing my screw up. Wolfshadw :.
