Shaw Satellite and recording from HDMI port

[SFX Group]

Has anyone recorded from the HDMI port on the Shaw Satellite receivers? (meaning have Shaw digitally protected all items comming out the HDMI or just the movies (as the industry said they should)?)

I dont want to record movies, however i would like to record other items like History channel and National Geographic, prefer not to have to use the Composite if possible (i have the small receiver with 1 HDMI and Composite output).

I am planning on use the Hauppauge HD PVR 2 (which will do HDMI).

I'm not sure if Shaw has HDCP enabled. If it does, then often it can be removed by installing a HDMI splitter. A lot of these devices remove HDCP from the signal. Some recent info here: http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/forum/showthr...TV-capture

Thanks, looks interesting, will look in to that, sounds like the setup, split the cable, 1 to TV 1 to HD PVR2...
