What is the usb port on the direct tv dvr for?

If you can use it, can you plug a say a rear drive into it and move the shows that you have recored onto it? Then can you play it on your computer?


Answers:    Not sure I get the drift your question, but most DVD recorder have an IEE1394 fire-wire port (mini usb type) to allow you to connect a digital video camera.

It give you a fast (very fast) background transfer from camera to DVD recorder. It's singular one way though (input only) and is a facts transfer port, so you couldn't play put a bet on your camera's video clips through it. You'd need to upload the clips to your DVD recorder's intricate drive first, and view it from near.

If your recorder is DivX compliant, you might be able to upload a DivX movie from your computer onto your DVD recorder via the fire-wire port, but remember, you singular have a predetermined number of playbacks with DivX, and remember also, you involve to register your DVD recorder's DivX serial No before you can play support any DivX video.

I can't just talk about the website for DivX registration, but I will try to find out for you, just contained by case!
