What alternative(s) do I have to Time Warner Cable’s Exclusive DVR??
I currently rent the upper level of a house that has Time Warner’s “All in One” package (15Mbps RR, Extended Cable, and Digital Phone).
The owner lives in the lower level and I am able to share all of the services, however they have a DVR installed on their HDTV downstairs. Time Warner will allow you to rent an additional DVR for about $7/mo, however the owner of the house refuses to let me pay her for the 2nd DVR for my part of the house!!
I have looked into services like TIVO, as well as DVD burners and HD DVR’s with digital tuners. The problem is that even with a digital tuner, Time Warner scrambles channels above 100 and uses a QAM tuner. They have made it so that you must rent their own equipment!
I know the laws will be changing sometime in the future, but I need a solution now! The solution doesn’t need to have HDTV, but it would be nice to have both options – I just need to be able to recieve & record channels including those above 100…
Thanks!
Time Warner encrypts most of their digital channels, so it is required to have a cable box from them to unencrypt the channels above 100. There are no black market options available that can decrypt these channels. The makers of the set top boxes keep their encryption keys under lock and key and they are nearly impossible to crack.
You could purchase a TV with a QAM tuner and a tivo, but this option would only allow you to receive unencrypted channels. Since only a few of the digital channels are unencrypted, this option would not solve your problem.
There is a solution though. If you have a friend that is in the same cable market as you, you can rent a DVR from Time Warner under their name. The box will work in your apartment only if your willing friends cable is controlled by the same computer. This is where the encryption keys are stored and the box will only function on a RF feed from that computer. So make sure that you have the same cable provider. You will have the same services that your friend subscribes to and all VOD purchases that you make will appear on their bill. There will be no links to your landlords cable.
