Hi i am looking at getting a skybox f5s can you record on external hard drive if so hows it done
cheers mark
 
Buy a USB Hdd, not a massive one, some boxes
don't see really big ones (about 500Gb, or less will do fine).

Format to FAT32 (some come pre formatted)

Plug it into the box.

You have a record button at the bottom of the remote
for instant recording.

For timer recording press the micro panel button (m/p)

Timer Settings - Ok

Change timer settings to "once or daily " (right button)
Timer service to "record" (right button)

Set channel,date,time and duration (like setting an old video recorder)

Save.

If your box is going to be on standby, start recording a bit early as it only starts booting
from the time you have set.
