Sky are far from perfect though aren't they.

Spark Max Fibre using Mikrotik CCR1009-8G-1S-1S+, CRS125-24G-1S, Unifi UAP, U6-Pro, UAP-AC-M-Pro, Apple TV 4K (2022), Apple TV 4K (2017), iPad Air 1st gen, iPad Air 4th gen, iPhone 13, SkyNZ3151 (the white box). If it doesn't move then it's data cabled.

Directly copying from the HDi box is currently a big fat no...

There are some options to copy recorded unencrypted channels using additional equipment but I dont have the details. Maybe another forum member can provide a link to a previous post discussing these options?

That wasn't the question was it.

Jeez, your like a broken record aren't you. If you don't have anything useful to contribute to anything related to the subject - why bother?

There are a couple of ways to achieve what you want, and they involve getting a Sky subsription but using a decoder not supplied or supported by Sky. One of the options is covered in this thread....

At one stage I had a dvd recorder connected to my MYSKI HDI box. It was okay for recording live tv or something you had recorded, but it had to be done in real time.
