I'm here a lot

Do recordings that I delete get permanently deleted automatically after sitting a few days in the delete folder?

Hello and welcome to the Community @RAB12,

 

You've definitely come to the right place :)!

 

A deleted recording sits in Recently Deleted until it is permanently deleted, or until the program is automatically deleted to save storage.  A recording only has a one-year lifespan in your Cloud PVR! Once it reaches that limit, it will be deleted automatically and, unrecoverable.

 

Hope this helps :)!

@sheriffoflandma What you ask for is not possible due to digital rights management (DRM).  Theoretically you could record a programme to the cloud, then, you could use a powered HDMI to component video converter, make use of the "analogue hole" to send a signal to an Hauppauge HDPVR Computer, and then download that file to a USB from the computer.  Why would you want to do this?
