Quote from: Joseph SUSB2 doesn't have 5c, though.

And this is irrelevant, since the issue is "Does the video stream exist in an unencrypted format inside the STB so that this add-on can fetch it out over USB" to which the answer is (If the STB manufacturer uses the usual suspects in chipsets) "No".

I don't understand... as far as I can tell the answer is "Yes" since I'm able to capture from ANY channel.

Because the Dish box you have is not internally encrypted.  Unlike the TWC boxes.

Quote from: Mark StrubeLOL, I believe he means moving to different media (DVHS or hard drive) for personal archiving in native HD, which I'm now able to do with the R5000-HD modification.

Could you please explain the "R5000-HD modification" ?   If this allows the archiving of HD content (sat or digital cable) over to a PC I would be quite interested in that...
