It's never an issue because as mentioned, the drive gets emptied each weekend and transferred to my media server. The size of each 1-hour recording is between 3-4 GB in size - so rough estimate is I have a capacity of 50 hours with that drive. Those are the only 2 purposes for the HW150.Īt the end of the week - I disconnect the hard drive and plug it into my media server to transfer the recordings where I then commercial remove them and make them available to Emby where she watches them from.

It has only 2 jobs: Record my wife's Monday-Friday daytime shows and during football season delay live TV by 12 seconds - as 12 seconds is the amount of time it takes to sync up the video from the game I'm watching to the radio call of my home team. My box (which I refer to in posts now as the 'Franken-iView' - a mediasonic hw-150 box with iView firmware) is not my primary means of recording. I'm not 100% sure - but I thought I once tried a 3 TB drive and it never actually completed. Regarding hard drive - I recall putting a 1 TB drive on the box (making sure it was not attempting to draw power from the box) and found a delay when accessing the drive as it 'scans' the whole drive. I wound up taking a competitor's firmware (from iView) and flashing that on the box after getting an iView remote.īut let's table that for a moment - it is certainly not the issue here. Many people aren't affected by the bug - some were.

JHBrandt can give a better description of it than I - but my attempt at summarizing it is that something in the stations PSIP caused the box to 'double-scan' the station occasionally when tuning to it - in essence treating it like a 'new' channel which would wipe out all of your scheduled recordings on that channel. My HW-150PVR was hit by the 'double-clutch' bug on the primary station that my wife's programs are recorded on.
