DVR recorders are a feature to the common cable, satellite and now high speed data service that serves television programming to residences and commercial spaces throughout the world. DVR recorders are fast becoming a default feature technology about the cable set top box. The technology is basically a hard disk enabled video recording system, principally identical to the process of tape recording a show with a VHS tape, which was common in the 1980s and 1990s. But with a digital video recorder, the key difference is that most of these set top boxes don't readily allow for the physical transport of the video from one location to another, as was the case with VHS tapes.
Numerous digital set top boxes utilize the digital video recorder and it is a default feature. The technology let users capture shows they had access to like cable subscription, similar on what on VHS recording. The disadvantage of DVR is its not to possible to be carried to another place, just like in VHS recording. Various commerce representatives dispute about this type of topic concerning DVR security.
Because, there is a need to make digital video recorders transferable, some further innovations, hardware and software solutions, have been made. It is just easy to record videos and eject it and give it to another person or being it to your friend but in a DVR It can't be done. Several set top boxes are needed to be arranged into a PC, so that the soft file inside of the set top box's hard drive will be transferred. The user can also watch media off the DVR in real time.
In order to stream media off of digital video recorders, a software-hardware combination solution will be needed. One solution offered by a streaming company offers a small box that's equipped with proprietary software for manipulating the set top box, and working with the set top box's DVR security. This additional box is plugged into the home network, and then is made accessible over the public internet, via log in credentials and a proprietary login channel.
Without the use of streaming software and hardware, extracting the media from a DVR is relatively involved, as content providers such as cable TV providers don't have a vested interest in seeing this content being so freely distributable. The idea behind setting the content from set top boxes free in a regulated and industry officiated way came in the past decade in the way of the so called cable card. The cable card was essentially a PCMCIA card that would've allowed interoperability between the set top box and the PCs. Unfortunately, though, many providers were hesitant to adopt this method and technology, because the technology could conceivably undo the grip that the content providers in the industry had on its content. Many home brewed solutions are possible through a cable card enabled set top box, such as streaming the content that you've recorded from your home PC, in effect turning you into something of a non-profit content affiliate.
