Some notes on the issue of recording encryption.

  • Every recording made by the Humax is encrypted before being stored on disk;
  • The encryption key is unique to each box and believed to be stored in an on-chip Hardware Security Module (HSM);
  • Copying a standard definition recording to an external disk (connected via USB) results in the Humax decrypting the file in the process [HDR model only];
  • Copying a high definition recording to an external disk will NOT decrypt it;
