User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone tried to use this with an external hdd or ssd? what is the maximum drive size it supports? several competitors only support up to 128gb
Answer:	I've used a 250gb SSD with this devise. It may support higher, I haven't tried. PS: Just remember that all capture devices of this type will limit video files to multiple 2gb size. This means if you have a captured video that will need 20gb, it will create 10 files. There seems to be no frames missing as you go from one file to the next. Also, there is no audio output for headsets. I recommend you investigate the DIGITNOW video capture device (Also on Amazon). It is a much better device.
Question:	how to recording from my laptop
Answer:	Connect the HDMI out from your computer to the HDMI in on the recorder. Be sure to connect to an external monitor to verify that you are getting signal.
Question:	What is the DC voltage range
Answer:	My Unit says 5Volts, 2 Amps
Question:	Will this unit record play back from my directtv dvr? just want to record 15 min's of a show that i have on my dvr, to my pinnacle studio 23 software
Answer:	If the connectors going into the device are compatible, this should have no problem recording from a dvr. I use the HDMI input and directly record onto a flash drive at 1080 and then from the flash drive into my computer to edit. It's wonderful with no dropouts that I have encountered. I have been using this nonstop for 8 months with no problems.

User questions & answers

Question:	Anyone have any issues with their recording schedules disappearing? Mine wiped all my schedules
Answer:	Ok I don't have this model but I have another model by same company (HW-150pvr) and it is dumping schedules too. I've had two units over 4 years and it's happened in the past but happening a lot more now. I'm on Amazon to find a replacement because this is unacceptable. I'm thinking Mediasonic is to be avoided.
Question:	Hi folks what external hard drive do you use with this? Thanks lynn
Answer:	I used a 500GB salvaged out of an old laptop that was totally dead. I ordered a cheap $7.99 ORICO USB3.0 to SATA III 2.5" External Hard Drive Enclosure from Amazon as well to mount it in. Worked perfectly. I've also used a cheap (free) 32GB USB thumb drive that I didn't have any problem with. Got that thumb drive free from a Microcenter computer store.
Question:	Es japones - *brasileño
Answer:	Hecho en Canada
Question:	Can you program the remote to control your TV
Answer:	Read the manual friend. The remote does control (it can, in the settings) the TV.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do take off military time? I want regular timing
Answer:	No option to switch from military time. That probably simplifies hardware and software design. Output from the unit's internal clock has to be converted to 12 or 24 hour time. 12 hour time would require extra circuitry and logic for time display (rolling numbers after 12, and am/pm) and, more importantly, for correct operation of the PVR. Military time dispenses with that. A more consumer friendly design would allow "regular" time, but ergonomics and economics aren't always compatible.
Question:	I've got it set up, but it keeps shutting off then coming back on. How can i stop it from doing that
Answer:	The power go off and on or does the reception go off and on? I have two of them and both are still going after a couple years
Question:	how do I delete an on going recording so it doesn't record the same time every day
Answer:	Go to the Schedule menu (where you originally set up that recurring recording). Using the Up-Down keys, place the cursor bar on the problematic program. Bottom of the page are options affecting that selected program. Press the indicated number key to edit or to delete. Delete will permanently remove the program. Edit will allow you to change the program details, including how often to record. Just move down to highlight Repeat. You can then use L or R key to change the frequency of recording between once, weekly, or daily. Then, confirm your changes which will bring you back to the program schedule page where you should see the changes.
Question:	Can this be used with an antenna amplifier in line
Answer:	Unclear what you're trying to do. To be usable, you must feed an RF signal from an antenna to the RF input of the converter. That antenna can be amplified. The converter can then output audio and video (it works as a TV tuner and as a PVR) via either composite or hdmi to your TV/monitor. Even if you want to feed the converter RF output to a TV RF input, the converter still needs an antenna. In this case, you could amplify the RF signal between converter and TV. Bit, if your TV needs an amplified RF signal, likely so will the converter. In which case, it just makes more sense to place the amplifier between antenna and converter rather than converter and TV. Basically, you can stick one or more antenna/RF amplifier anywhere in the RF chain at the risk of overdriving an input and losing or distorting reception. Some spots are just more sensible or convenient. But, that depends on your particular equipment, objective, and sometimes, placement.

Digital Stream Analog Pass-through DTV Converter Box

• Capable of passing analog signals through to the TV set

User questions & answers

Question:	Does anyone know if this would pick up over the air digital channels
Answer:	Yes, it does. That's the only kind of TV signals that are sent over the air any more. I set my unit up in no time and am using only an inside-the-house digital antenna and I get about 10 channels. If I had a better antenna and it was on the house or high up it would probably pick up over 50 HD digital channels. My brother has an antenna and gets over 50 channels on his big-screen. Mine is just hooked up to a little 13" analog TV. Clear picture for an old TV! Hope this helps.
Question:	Need a External Antenna to go along with this item. What would you recommend? Thinking indoors
Answer:	Old. Find one from the 1970"s back when they were built to work rather than look pretty. Check flea markets and yard sales. You'll need an adaptor to go from 2 wires screwed on to a 1980"s cable ready connection but its by far the best reception you'll get without a massive flagpole outdoor antenna
Question:	Does any one know how to program the favorite button on the remote
Answer:	Go to Menu, (blue Menu button) then hit Select (Blue "OK" button) on the 'Channel' category (shows as "CH") Then, navigate down (using White down-arrow key) to 'Channel Edit' on the sidebar menu, and select that. You should then see a full list of the channels in your lineup. Above, there are 4 columns: 'Channel', 'RF', 'Add' & 'Fav.' You can use the directional arrow keys both horizontally and vertically to move through the channels and columns and Select which you want to be in your Favorites. I really like this box. I've had other brands that made it fairly impossible to program Favorites, but this one is pretty easy. Hope that helps :)
Question:	If i use this on my hdtv will i be able to record over the air tv on my dvd recorder
Answer:	Yes, but you will lose some quality. You will be recording the analog signal from the converter box. You can use a splitter so that your antenna can feed into both the TV directly (do a channel search from the tv for HDTV signals) AND another cable from splitter goes into the DTV converter which goes into your DVD Recorder. This way you can SIMULTANEOUSLY record any channel from the Digital Stream converter, while watching another channel in High Def using the TV's tuner.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use it to watch TV on a projector using the coaxial cable to this box and then the hdmi out to the projector
Answer:	Yes. Need an antenna. It is not a cable box. Only clear cable channels will work if using cable. Cable companies scamble most channels
Question:	It's this box an improvement over the 163 one? I like that one but need to return it due to it rebooting and freezing during playback of videos I reco
Answer:	Question for "Guitar Playing Guy"... I tried to connect a completely new and functioning external HD and have been unable to get a consistently reliable connection. It supplies power to the drive, but 9 times out of 10 shows up on screen as not being connected. I suspect a very cheap USB component in the box, since it has a lot of play once the cable is connected and the cable will not snap into place AT ALL. It's like trying to work with a plug made of barely held together parts.Their product description here reads: "All you need to do is hookup a digital TV antenna to your AT-263! Want to record? Just plug in a flash / thumb drive or an external hard drive into the USB port on your unit, and you're ready to go!"This is obviously not the case (at least for me and a number of others who have commented about this very issue).UPDATE: As of June 18, 2016 I'm returning the item due to the many flaws that prevent it from being used as advertised.
Question:	Can i use this as a tv tuner for an led computer monitor
Answer:	Yes, hook up the box to the antenna input and then use the Video out (or HDMI ) to your monitor and your set. The box will be the digital tuner for your monitor.

Answer:	Yes, it will take coax input and output it to HDMI or RCA
