I used to have one of those. But, the peice of junk had the dreaded StarzHD drop-out problem.

P.S. resize your pictures

Do you know the pinout from the MMAP Port to HSI input on HDD-1000?

I also have a DSR 920.

Thanks

No, i just cut the 3.5mm head phone plug off a MMapp cable i already had. Stripped and connected the 2 wires to the HSI in. I think the pin out is around the web somewhere.


I googled this post from Lee Richardson. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/40439-25-hdd200-mmap-data-cable-pinout

Yes, that should work. If i remember correctly that thing had relays in it that'll start clicking when not on a HD channel. I used BNC to RCA adapters to send the signal into my tv. Also, the picture wasn't perfectly centered on the display. I did get it for cheap though and i sold it cheap fast.:D
