I recently bought a UPS and placed it near my TV, to keep my PVR alive during brief power hits. Without it, the PVR will reboot and lose a few minutes of whatever it was recording.
Precisely. Same as I have - but my PVR is upstairs. The UPS protected the router, the PVR, and the wireless phone.
Forgot to mention.
One of the features of the new fiber tv I got, is that I can record almost everything, as many simultaneous programs as I want - but it is not done locally, but at the ISP, and stored for six months. I can power off all the equipment, the recording is not affected at all - obviously.
Yes, Swisscom has begun offering this service too recently. Of course, some of us have been recording TV on harddisk since 2001. The first one was a mere 18Gb, which didn't take long to fill, but it was fairly easily upgraded to 120Gb (I think it was).
In fact, what I think they do, is record everything on all channels, continuously. When a client clicks "record", what it does is simply save a pointer or index to it.
