Guys I need help. DVR problem

My tv isn't working. My dvr box won't come on. I'm having a charter technician come to my house tommorow to try and fix it. I can't watch any tv Or any of my recorded programs. I had a lot of recorded stuff on that dvr box and I wouldn't be able to get it back if I had to lose all my recordings. I'm going to be really angry at the guy if he tells me I need a new box and will lose my recordings. I will scream àt him if he tells me that. How do I not lose my recordings? These shows just aren't going to come back on back to back , probably never. I would never be able to get them back. What do I do?

Look them up online, you can find pretty much everything. You could also consider buying them on dvd if you like them that much

Torrents. Actually once you stat torrenting you'll probably turn in the DVR anyways. Torrenting is so much better. They cut out all the commercials for you.

There are no recordings you have that aren't up on torrent sites. Yes you can keep them. Directly from the DVR? Maybe. It depends on why it bit the dust. Last I recall they use just standard HDDs, not too difficult to hook up one up to a PC and pull off the DATA. If it bit because the HDD was corrupted, good luck.
Also did you make sure it was plugged into the wall

There's probably a way to take the hard drive out of it and implant into another or something. Pm or post me the model number of the dvr and I'll see if I can find anything on the net about it when I'm home from work
If not, maybe get one of those wifi things next time so it's all in the cloud and backed up. Wifi stream from tawrented PC files is prob the best bet. I can give ya invytes to sites too where you can pyrate safer too

Nope, not anymore. During the busy season we see dozens if not hundreds of retards lose their minds over their precious recordings. It's not the technician's fault the box is busted.
If you want to watch TV in the meantime just hook the coaxial cable from the jack to the back of your TV and watch analog.

or avoid ALL OF THIS AND JUST TORRENT.. FFS it's all there.. There's more on one torrent site than you could ever hope to watch or have interest in. It's nto hard. You download a p2p client (utorrent) then get a tracker (google it, or better yet just "title of show" torrrent). and there you go. All your "lost" data minutes away from your HDD.
Fuck DVR. In a few years it will be as relevant as a VCR player.

They switched out the box and now I have none of my old recordings, nor none of my series recordings. Its fucking bullshit. These charter people are punks. Months and months from now I still am not going to be recovered from this. I don't know if Ill even be able to find my old shows ever. They dont play marathon repeats of them.

That'll happen if you don't turn off your dvr when you're not using it. Or putting things on top of it.
