I have an HR-22 DVR. It is advertised as having a 500Gb drive capable of recording 100hrs of HD. If all 500GB are used, that comes out to around 11MBit/sec bitrate.
I've read that DirecTV broadcast bitrate is around 6-12 MBit/sec, varying by PQ as it should.
Does the HR-22, save the stream directly to the HD? If so, shouldn't the capacity vary depending on programming?
Otherwise, does it re-encode the stream to around 11MBit/Sec?
