Langsuan Man Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Can you purchase a DVR here in Thailand that is not tied to True Visions ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amusements Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Can you purchase a DVR here in Thailand that is not tied to True Visions ? Try plugging in a normal external HD, and see if that works. I know it works on the GMMZ HD box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Ubon Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I may be missing something here, Skippybangkok, but what PVR do you have from True? The boxes I have are all minus a hard drive and no one at True is the least bit interested in finding out what I need by way of external drive to be able to use the record facility (oh how I long for my old Skybox! :-)). Thanks. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris2004 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Can you purchase a DVR here in Thailand that is not tied to True Visions ? You can purchase the equipment separately (like the orico 2598 enclosure and 2.5 in HDs upto 1 TB) but you have to use True's system (99 baht a month) as i think the signal is encrypted. I bought the equipment myself as it's cheaper than through True. Great to have though makes TV viewing so much more flexible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippybangkok Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 I got mine ages back, but not sure if in shop. I know from a friend he bought a eSATA ( or what ever the standard is ) HD and connected himself ( v easy, just 60s plug in ). only thing is need to call them and ask for the 99 baht service ( then need to click something in their system ). For me its worth it, as i said, don't have a alot of time and just like to watch what i want ( have alot of Discovery and movies pre-recorded ) http://www.truevisionstv.com/hd_plus/overall_en.html#hd_pvr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
