Humax PVR is dead. NVRAM has failed so it won't store configuration or recording schedule. What can I do with it?
It has hard disk, and Power supply and plenty of room inside.
https://magpi.raspberrypi.com/articles/pivr-pi-pvr It has been done before.
This calls for a powered USB hub.
I'll need USB-SATA connection.
How much power can I get from the Humax PSU? Need to suss out the pins.
If I used a R-Pi 3B+ it would have wireless.
Humax PSU has 8 wires running from it, 4 are +12 and 4 are Ground. Each set of four is all connected together on the PCB.
I have bought a dual 5V converter module so that I can give 5 volts to the R-Pi and 5 volts to the SATA disc. 23/9/2022 - This has arrived as has a USB to SATA converter. So now the hard disk can be connected to the driving computer.
16/8/2024 Pi 3B+ has arrived. Shall I get my TV Tuner back from Ben, or buy a new one, or a TV HAT?
I have printed a Raspberry Pi case to mount the Pi in the case.
