    Hi, thanks for the add.

    I have a 5000T and wanted an espresso to use in the other room but it doesnt support subtitles and I am deaf. So I’m thinking of getting a refurbished 4000T, will they play each others recordings?

    Thanks.

    Can you run a flat cat 6 cable to the other room TV from the 5000T ?

    Link in above post appears to be broken

    These are flat enough to be hidden under carpets and around the edges.

    If yes you can view the content on the remote TV subtitles and all, and control the box using the remote you have.

    It will be much cheaper than a 2nd box.

    Thank you all for the help. TEch support says I will have to “copy” recordings from one machine to another in order to see subtitles. How do you “Copy” from one machine to another? If its laborious then its not worth it.

    In my view it is laborious.

    To “Copy” you would need to first transfer to another dive. This can be USB storage or a PC via Samba ensuring that the recording does get decrypted. All recordings on the FVP are encrypted but only SD recordings can be decrypted. If you have recorded the programme in HD then forget it.

    Once the recording is exported and decrypted then reverse the process to copy to the other machine.
