I’m afraid not.

If all attempts at resetting/recovery have failed, they can only replace the box and you lose any recordings that are on it.

Hi @MP123 and welcome back.

It's been a long time but great to see you again. Any recordings are stored on the box so I'm sorry but @Anonymous is correct.

Cheers

David

@MP123 

SD recordings yes - pull the disc out of the box, put it in a caddy, look at it via a Linux distro.

HD recordings no - they are encrypted in such a way that they are tied to the unique ID of the box. Even if it no longer works 😢

Bit niche, but an option! 🤣
