Norman,
Here's my ALMOST DEAD HDVR-3500 receiver looks like without a RED light for DVR. DEAD RED Light that you won't see in the picture.
This is my current and almost dead
HDVR-3500 receiver looks like before I receive your HDVR-3500 receiver.
Take a look...View photo attachment.
Look at photo #004. Inside the
HDVR-3500 receiver, NO RED light
under the left side, inside the receiver.
NO RED light for DVR function.
It won't playback recorded videos.
And it won't allow me to record.
DEAD!!!
However, you can unplug and plug-in
the receiver which then you'll see
the RED light inside for DVR, but
that won't LAST for 5 minute.
And it keep flashing with mixed
message on screen.
Like this....
-- USB is connected
-- USB is disconnected
-- Unknown file
-- USB Uploaded files
-- USB download files
This shows while the RED light was
flashing, and shows the above
message one after another.
Even though I haven't insert the USB
flash drive on the back!!!!
It's the memory issue that's getting
worse.
Okay, hope you like my photos that
shows what I have NOW currently,
for 5 or 6 years gone by.
I always have it on 24 / 7.
Thanks, Norman!!
