Hi Venkat

from your answer what i get is that i will only be recording the Show that is being played on the STB, right.

which is done at present also by the DVD Recorder.

what i would like to know, will i also be able to record by some way the already recorded program on my TS+ STB,

will this work, say when i am watching an already recorded Show by the TS+ STB on TV & also then connect the DVD Recorder at the same time & will then i be able to record that show on the DVD Recorder.

Yes you can record an already recorded program
 
Great job Chetan!! In the UK, you get professional guys who replace the 160GB to higher capacities. However the problem seems to be increasing to higher capacity drives in some cases. Have a look at this link before fitting the new drive (Digital Spy - Sky+ Upgrade FAQ - 28th November 2006 - Sky+ - Digital Spy Forums). It's very helpful.

Thanks for this update , does nyone know how to do a Full System Reset on Tata Sky?

Anyways wats the use of that... if somehow we can transfer the recorded files of the TS+ STB then theres no need of dvd recorder...

@Sabir
Wait for sometime until chetan is done with the testing. re-recording the recorded file is like chewing a used chewing gum!!! hehe... :p
 
Hmm but when there are shows and stuff available to view online in certain sites, why the need to transfer?? That too with the logo of channels and TS? I dont mean to offend anyone btw.
 
great work! but i wonder how the file is copy-protected on a FAT32.

Chetan, here's what you do:

Hold LEFT+RIGHT (forward and backward buttons) at power on (from the mains socket).
Release and press SELECT when the ring flashes.
Ring cycles backwards, RECORD lights to indicate failure of quick format, PLAY lights to indicate success.
Box then returns to standby.
Wait 5 minutes before bringing out of standby with remote or front panel button.

This is the equivalent of a Full System Reset (Quick Format) via the menus. It will delete all recordings and planner entries!
