I didn't see any reference to HDCP in the review and your demo only navigated through some menus without actually showing the device recording content per se. The Amazon AU site includes the following, which judging by some of the comments and queries below, is quite a pertinent point to some if not many people... [The device does not support any content protected by HDCP. When connected to an HDCP (Content Protection) source, it will output an error message or nothing. This does not indicate a defect.]
Bingo. This is just an overpriced DVR with fewer features than most.
Yeah, all you have to do is hold the codec button for 5 to 10 secs just to capture your record with almost anything. Especially, when you have the AV cables hooked up to the tv from any device like a ps2, it shall record just fine.
Just what I have been looking for. Thanks. (Liked & Subscribed)
0:00 4K recorder 5:10 Cloner Recorder can record any source through HDMI hookup.
8:15 Different devices the unit will record from.
You're the first review I've seen that confirms saved content on the thumb drive can play on other devices
Looks interesting... tempted to follow your link and get one, but seeing Dan Kelley's question below makes me wonder on that one. I also wondered if it has any way to rename a completed video without taking it to a different device to do so. And correct me if I'm wrong, but the "limited time discount link" puts the device right in a shopping cart with NO explanation or way to find out which model, but it appears to only be the old 1080p model not the 4K model? No discount for the 4K UHD model?
1. Very CLEAR and easy to understand instructions.
2. Also short and to the point.
3. Also more important info first, and , less important info
Last.
4. Every step and screen demonstrated in the video.
If you're only recording while your on the app, you might as well just watch it. It's all about scheduling and having the unit switch apps, record at particular times, like a VCR did 20 years ago.
Yes but there's a movie I like on Max that was Never released on DVD. It's hard to find. I want to keep it
What about buffering and fast forward through commercials???
Another fxxking waste of money.
@@James-if6pcJust Google it and see if it's available to download somewhere.
Very cool device! Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure blakebabies!
I have one but it didn't have 4k at the time. Great little device. The only that needs improvement is the remote.
THANK YOU FOR SHOWING ME HOW TO HOOK UP THE WIRES AND OPERATIONS VERY GOOD JOB
It’s easy, it’s also expensive. 2-5 times the cost of a streaming device. It’d only be really useful to record things you know are disappearing for significant time. I just alternate streaming services so I pay less and there’s time for new content to build up. Great video
Gotta love the try though😂
Awesome thank you. I've been looking for a way to record my UFC pay per views without having to continue my espn plus subscription.
It's very sad to post videos with all these great questions and then you don't answer. This box is almost $200 and I can't afford to buy it without having decent support, since you recommend it.
Do you know the limitation size of a hard drive that can be used with this system? Great video by the way...
Thank you so much for ur videos, I’m trying to decide if I want to totally rid myself of cable. My only issue is that I can set my Drv to record the same news shows that I watch ? Each time they come on I.e. I like a show that comes on at 6pm every day. My DVR is programmed to play that show every day at 6pm can I do that with THIS system. Thx in advance for your time
Good info thanks.
This is exactly what I've been looking for, thanks you Richman Knows!! Subscribed and Liked!!!
I record on my Roku and it's stored in the cloud. But I still prefer my DVR because I can see the comericials in fast forward mode. And the major networks are full of comercials!
Interesting. I'm learning how to record things from while at home with streaming services to play back later in our Motor Home when we have only HD ANT. I think this device is what I need...unless you know of a more simple process. Thanks, I subscribed knowing you cover these topics with great depth.
If you have Netflix, you can download straight to your phone. I did this and brought a projector camping. It was a huge hit!
@@krisyoung447 I don't have NF but I have CZcamsTV. I understand that if I were to upgrade to 4K Plus, I would be able to download to a device (iPhone or iPad) for watching offline. I'm just wondering if I can then 'cast' it to my Smart TV in the Motor Home. How did you connect your phone to the projector?
What is the audio output? Standard stereo or full 5.1?
Are you able to "pre-program" a recording from a streaming channel? like "Magis TV"??
Used Christmas money to buy myself one of these, based in part on your recommendation and video. Thanks.
I can’t record apple tv 4k with my 3 year old cloner box pro. What am I doing wrong? Also, have they added a pause feature yet on the new cloner box?
I dont know if they changed anything since I quit using but the only thing to keep in mind is that its did record but the Audio was only in STEREO which was the reason I quit using due to I play all my stuff on a 7.2.4 Dolby Set up..
Could you use this on your tv cable box to record tv sports matches so you don’t use the cable companies dvr cable box?
I loved your video. I had to get one after this video. I can't wait to get it and use it, thanks.
How does this handle recording a show? You just showed scrolling through the menus. I ask because I have Pluto TV on my phone and while watching a show I cannot take a screenshot. It instead throws up a message saying "cannot take screenshot due to security policy". I didn't try my screen recording app but I think it works. It would be nice to just capture the streaming video file that is being played instead of simply playing it, dump the data to an .mp4 file. I had programs that did that for streaming videos online.
It seens as though I can't buy it as I am from Australia. The checkout only allows for purchasing from North America and China. Is there a way you can advise where I can buy one from Australia please?
Can I record Hulu…in order to fast forward thru commercials? Thanks for what ya do! 👍channel!
Can’t help noticing that no questions are getting answered here, so I’ll take that as a “No, this doesn’t work for anything that is copy protected”, which is everything that most people would want this for (anything that’s not just OTA programs). Pass.
Have you found anything that does?
This is amazing
Have had 1080 cloned for years and love it. Bought one of these 4K boxes and it’s total garbage. No heat management, overheats less than an hour into recording and shuts down. Returned it immediately
My problem is that video recordings from my (now defunct) samsung tv won't play on my laptop because apparently they're in some dodgy encrypted format.
Can a person record any video from different websites on the internet like Dailymotion, CZcams, Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram??? Or any or all websites like Adult website if that’s their preference??? I would LOVE to have a ton of 80’s Hard Rock Videos off of CZcams.
Nice, but in my case, the whole point of recording is to be able to setup times to record my fav shows (when I’m not watching live) to view later. I think that’s the part skipped in this vid.
I don’t see the point of recording it while you’re watching it to view later after you’ve already watched it.
One would have to have a way to switch to and send a separate stream to it at the right time, and this doesn’t say whether it can control both items.
Ideas?
He covered a spot in this where, the unit can be "scheduled". So, that functionality is available....just not sure how intuitive it truly is. In my case, DVR is most useful to me using how you just described (scheduling), and to pause/rewinding something to watch again in real time. The latter function I didn't see demonstrated, which would be a big problem for me, depending on what this unit cost.
I was about to ask if you can record one thing,while at the same time watch something else like you can with a DVR?? If not,what's the point ?
@@cliffsanchez1451With more than 1 player or a player and a smart TV you can.
You can schedule a recording and it will record the incoming hdmi feed between the hmm to hmm you specify.
Beware the device has its own clock that YOU must keep synced with reality-my cloner ‘s clock is slightly ‘slow’ so I must resync at least twice a year.
To DVR you would need to have a streamer that can turn on a specific channel at a specific time. And not go into sleep mode. Do any streamers do that?
Can you only record the data that is on the tv, that’s to say can you record one and watch another programme?
This would've been nice capture card to have, but its high price, and the fact they still split up your files at specific sizes and times, even if you use NTFS drives, makes it not worth it at this time. I ultimately went with the AverMedia ER330 instead. While it does require an HDCP stripper to remove copy protection (not that I have plan on hooking HDR equipment to it, which I do have), it's still cheaper than the ClonerAlliance UHD Pro.
BTW, neither device will passthrough HDR. You'll have to disable HDR on whatever device you're using, or use an HDMI matrix splitter/downscaler (which may or may not have HDR to SDR tonemapping to avoid washed out conversions).
Hi Trevor, I'm looking to back up content from my Dish satellite service DVR before I discontinue my subscription, as the prices have become outrageous. My research led me to either the ClonerAllienace Box Pro (1080p) or AVerMedia ER330 or ER330G (is there a difference?). I have hundreds of hours to offload, some are sports games that are 3-4 hours long and I don't want them split into a bunch of shorter movie files. You seem to be very knowledgeable, do you have a recommendation of what device I should buy for my purposes? And what does a HDCP stripper do, would having an HDMI splitter (which I have) allow me to offload from a subscription service DVR? Thanks for any advice!
thanks for these informations. Is it possible to record a channel and, at the same time, watch another channel (fire stick)? Thank you for your time
On the colner can you record multiple shows at one time?
Can you record a show while watching a different channel at the same time?
Thank you
Thank you for the information I was curious are you able to name the files in the player once you record them
Thank you for this video. I have a soundbar, and am thinking of connecting the soundbar to the Clonerbox HDIM in port, then connecting the cloner box to my TV's HDMI's out port. This way it would be centralized and be able to record everything, including broadcast TV via antenna. Does anyone know if this would work?
Most TVs do not have a video output. What is the video source you're using? What you could do is use a DTV converter box as the go between unit. Use its output to connect between the soundbar, the recorder, and then the TV. If you have a pre-amp/amplifier that handles HDMI as well as other A/V sources then this is another way to accomplish your goal.
What is the best product from old VHS video player to 4k file
SOOOO, For your "personal use", you "could" insert this inline from your 4K BluRay player to this box, then to your TV and record the 4K BluRay???? OR, would the disc copy protection make DVD/Rlu Ray copies "UN-recordable"?? I already have the DVR+ OTA recorder, (1080P), that is connected to my WD 2TB drive that works GREAT for OTA programs and this could be THE way to capture ANY? video that is inputted?? Thanks for this video, I'll have to check it out 🙂
I just watched a video on amazon saying the amazon 4k firestick wont work because it has Hdcp protection. In the manual it says when the cloner light flashes blue and green, the device connected is not compatible. When its solid blue or solid green then its compatible. Also, will this work with a roku stick?
Hello Richman Knows Tech. I enjoyed your Video. Could you recommend an external storage drive with a capacity of 2TB that would be compatible with this device ??
I'm not richman, but to answer your question. All you need is a 2TB external hard drive, or larger with a usb connection. A Western Digital Elements will work just fine. Use this for my streaming videos.
I use that link that you had to purchase so you can get credit for it and it says that is sold out. Do you have a different link?
Bro that's f****** dope
Thanks!
Thanks, Douglas. I really appreciate it!
My remote stopped working and the cloner people wouldn’t replace it. I would pay but no deal. They wanted me to buy another box. I stated I will buy a new box when they add a pause button/feature. I should mention my box was way out of warranty. Several years old actually.
Mr. Richman, I have a question will the Cloner Alliance Pro will record music? Please let me know. I'm a music lover myself. Mr. Richman, thanks for the video. I like that Cloner Alliance Pro. Have a nice n blessed holiday. Take care
If you're trying to rip CDs you can do that in software at speeds much faster than real time. Use audio grabber software for Windows to record music off CDs straight to your hard drive or SSD. It usually auto detects the best settings to get the best results. You control what information is included with the recordings. Like how do you want each file to appear? Do you want to include the track number, artist's name, album name, track name, and then in what order do you want that? Do you want the recorded tracks to be in a sub-folder sorted according to the album it originates from or not? The software works with the CDDB CD Database where it searches for matches to your CD. If there are multiple matches you can choose which one to use. If there isn't a match you can enter the details for each track manually and then send it to the CDDB for other people to use when they're trying to rip a CD. You can also export that data you either keyed in or received from the CDDB on your HDD or SDD. This is useful for keeping track of the CDs you've already ripped. So if you have a big collection of CDs this will serve to remind you that you already made a recording and can pre-populate the data fields in case you don't have an Internet connection. You onlt need the Internet connection to use the CDDB.
If your music is on records you can use free software like Audacity to record with. This software is useful for live recordings as well. It can record mono and stereo audio sources from USB and 3.5 mm audio cables. You just need to tell it where the source is coming from. Then you can use your computer to make recordings of any length desired until you run out of space on your hard drive, SSD, USB Flash Drive, memory card if that what you want to or need to do.
Both programs can record to .WAV and .MP3 formats at highest bitrates of 320 Kbps (or less depending on your settings).
If you want to record streaming music look at the Tascam DP-008EX or similar. It records perfectly but there is a learning curve to use it. Tutorials are on CZcams but not for simply capturing streaming audio. I use mine pretty much every day. Since I only use it this way, I haven't even bothered to learn anything else it can do. And it seems that these devices retain a high resale value down the line.
Can you record a prog and watch another program, or is it just a what's on the screen recorder.???
Too bad it doesn’t have a coaxial input. I’m looking for something to capture ota atsc 3.0 (4k) broadcasts.
What about movies you purchased from amazon that you can only watch with prime video?
Can I attach a 5 TB external HDD and record to it for later playback?
Can this record programs from antenna TV? (As I don’t have an Internet connection at my home. (Only Antenna)
I use xbox game bar to record, only just recently I am unable to record prime with it now, they must have found a way to block it.
Richman knows tech
Dear sir, you mentioned recording files. But can an act like a DVR in the sense of simply just pausing a live broadcast?
I just want to be able to pause what I'm watching. Leave the room come back and resume. I don't want to have to go find a file and watch it because then I'll be missing the live broadcast that's happening right now and I'll just end up having to watch the live broadcast later on
But if it could simply pause and then the next commercials I could fast forward through like any DVR. This is what I'm looking for
Ok so i bought this and i want to edit the videos on my mac mini. When i plugged it into my mac, the videos are not on the hard drive. I recorded some shows on it for hours. The shows are on the device, but i cant find them when i plug it into my computer. Maybe i formatted the hard drive incorrectly ?
Cannot switch off using the remote or set timers to stop recording at a specific time or even start at a time you want to..
Does it work on a smart tv?
I have a sony smart tv so can I record off CZcams and something i am casting off Internet Archive?
I like the durability of the chrome-cast for me its super reliable, but they could've have at least added a sdcard slot, for recording or storage, I'm guessing they don't want you to record is the reason, but it lacks serious storage.
I came to ask if this was possible using Google Chromecast 😞
Can you schedule a recording for when you are not home to hit record button?
Will this work with a Roku player?
Perhaps if I use my 256GB to 1TB SSD storage drive as options I might Record Tall Girl 1 and 2 on my storage devices.
Why does the thing you recorded have a date of January 1, 2020? (at 2:19pm) Is this product over 3 years old?
Richman, i'm in australia are there any sellers my way?
I'm surprised Tivo hasn't come out with a stream recorder. With people getting rid of cable, I know their business has been impacted by the rise of streaming.
Will this product to work with the super box pro S4? There is only one HDMI port, so I assume the answer is no, but I thought I would ask. Thank you!
The HDMI from the PS4 goes to the recording box. The recording box has an HDMI out, that connects to the TV. It should work.
Does it record Dolby Atmos, or just stereo?
Does this DVR records on time setup? Like direct tv DVR? That you can put the time you want the machine to start recording?
It has a schedule function.
How does it work with sound bar with ERC connection?
How do you et it up for a Smart TV?
Does it get rid of the Netflix tv-rating at the beginning of each episode?
The audience that might be interested in this device would be cord cutters, but for them to be interested, there would have to be an easy way to feed it from an NTSC 3.0 DRM tuner. Under NTSC 3.0, the local stations can use DRM and that means you can't record it to a local DVR. This device would allow you to take it out of the decoded signal going to the TV, but now you would have to have the TV on. Also, none of the current Tuners have any kind of programming guide. They are essentially just tuners. If the device had both a tuner and a video Card, then you could now simply program it for the station and time and send it from the video card to a box like this. Someone like Tivo TV will probably sell such a device in the future though because otherwise, Tivo is out of business.
Cord cutters are people who don't want to pay to watch cable or satellite TV shows but still have their high speed Internet. If they are using a "Smart" TV that has a LAN port on it then they can log into the "Channels" used on the "Smart" TV directly from their computers to watch the same content. With that they can then either use recording software on their computers or attach something like this to the HDMI outputs to capture live video feeds. From a software perspective what you'd be looking for a time shifting like what VCRs let us do years ago.
Game capture cards / recorders may have this feature intended for Twitch perhaps or something game related. Just as easy to apply that to recording other live or scheduled events.
@@IraQNid Yes, and with NTSC 3.0 content that has DRM will not be recordable, so no more DVR, and no more time shifting. It will be illegal to sell equipment that record DRM content so the signal can only be used in real time.
I think it is ATSC (digital) since NTSC analog was phased out in 2000.
This is going to get defeated in court. There is no logical or legal reason to DRM protect an OTA signal when cable TV uses DVR recorders built into their cable boxes AND you can buy 3rd party DVR recorders online. This move will be shown to be nothing more than an attempt to force poor people off ATO TV and onto Cable TV.
@@MrCougar214 No, it isn't going to be defeated, and DRM Is already being used in these markets already, and this list is about 6 months old. There are many more using it already, and some large station owners say that they will use it on all of their stations but here is an old list, so it is being used. If you are not using TV or Tuner that can receive the new ATSC 3.0 signal, then you would not know it, but if you were using TV that can receive it (most TVs built in the last 4 or 5 years), the signal will be encrypted. If you use an ATSC 3.0 Tuner with DRM and the TV had DRM, the TV can decode it, but your DVR would need a tuner that was for the new signal and your DVER would not be able to decode the image. You could only watch it live. So, this is already happening and nothing is really going to stop it.

Can you use this say on the altice stream box from Optimum?
Can you access your recordings remote from another state?
How does it handle HDCP? I can connect my iPad to my TV via an HDMI cable; the TV will mirror the screen letting me run an app like NETFLIX, go thru menus, make selections, etc; but as soon as I start playing back a video HDCP cuts off all output. Mirroring resumes as soon as playback is exited.
I would expect the same to happen with this device. Does it?
No, it will show and record the whole program
Does this work with Roku?
Please reply. You say copies from ANY HDMI device including dvd yet online description says it can't from dvd due to copy protection. Which is it?
Can't record content with HDCP.
what does the "3H" portion mean in the storage option? I first though it was telling you how much record time you'd get for 2, 4, 16 GBs of storage. But then it came up on all of those options. Does it have an onscreen time remaining prompt? As an overlay it wouldn't be recorded. No more than the red "REC" overlay isn't being burned into the recorded feed.
it stands for 3 hours worth of content.
3H estimated
This is a great device, but every time I load the mp4 into Premiere Pro, the video has intermittent skipping/repeating frames. Don't know if this is a codec compatibility issue or something else, but I have not been able to edit any of these videos because of it. Anybody else having these issues?
Ok that's all fine n dandy n all..
but I want to record something to keep that's already recorded on my cable box and I'm not using or watching any apps from the TV! How can I record something say on a CDR or XHD from the cable box shows I have already recorded onto the cable box? IE: If my cable box was to fail I would lose all the recordings. There are several shows that I really want to keep for myself by transferring the recording onto something permanent. So I will always have them. How would that work?
Can you please advise. My young grandson has a non smart LG tv in his room can I load his favourite movies on a Firestick so he can play them without him getting access to online material. The LG t will not play usb’s bigger than 2gb. Thank you.
So you could get Netflix with ads and save money. Record your shows and fast forward through the commercials?
I think 4k is only the most expensive tier but you can do it in 1080p
Then just us an upscaler for another 14 bucks
@@user-ep2es1mp5r true I didn't think of that.
@@user-ep2es1mp5rUpscaled 2K is not the same as 4K. Upscalers don’t (cannot) *create* resolution.
@@donny_bahama your description leaves me boggled. I have an upscaler and it def brings it up. I even know how it functions. It adds pixels through duplication. This does make it for example mine upscales tube tv to 72op it is def 720 pixel wide now. Is this the same as having true image at 720p, no but the difference is negligible. On my 4k upscaler no one noticed at all, I use it for Netflix and literally no one has noticed. 65inch Samsung tv. The small difference is not even noticeable side by side unless it's same tv, because even two 4k tvs display different ever looked at the displays.
I used to love my Ceton Infitv card it could record 6 Mpeg 2 videos at one time. I still have a lot of movies and TV shows I can play on Plex , unfortunately the Cable companies have managed to kill off cable cards. No it wasn't 4K but much better than steaming quality.
I'm looking for a way to record 16 or more channels simultaneously and be able to save it as .mp4 or .mov on an external hard drive, any ideas?
16 recorders or perhaps a low resolution security DVR.
Could you record from your cable tv recorded shows? Also, does the TV have to be turned on whilst recording?? Cheers!
It shouldn't be a problem. You attach the HDMI output cable from the set top box from your cable provider to the HDMI input of the recording hardware. Then attach the HDMI output of the recording hardware to whatever you're using for a display (TV, monitor, digital projector, etc).
Thank you sir! @@IraQNid
Yes, if it has HDMI out that is not encoded with DRM or you use an HDMI converter. TV need not be on.
Wow I want one.
But one question - does it upscale 1080 source to 4k?
Actually I connected a 4k fire stick to it and found it would only record it as 1920/1080p 60fp
I almost bought it! It seemed to be exactly what I am looking for. Thank goodness they put a note in the buying process saying that some customers try to record from an app in a smart TV, but that won't work because the TV is not getting an HDMI Input for that. So to record, the TV would have to have an HDMI Output which they don't (always or generally?). Is there a way around this? How to record HDMI that is being played from a smart TV? BTW, great video, and I hit the Like button!
Smart TVs work off a LAN port feed as well as external inputs. What is the source of your entertainment? Is it coming straight off the LAN port? If that is the case log into each "channel" that you'd have watched on the TV but instead do it on your computer. Then if your PC has HDMI output you can make the recordings in real time from that. Just attach the male-to-male HDMI cables between the output of your PC to the input of the recorder.
If you're using a Windows PC you could save a bunch of money by using the X-Box video recording software to live capture just about anything you like, any website, any game that you're playing. That software also lets you record a mic input. Sometimes on Steam though the software recorder will not record the audio for the game. I'm not sure why that is. So this external recorder should solve that issue. One other thing the software recorder can do is capture whatever audio you have playing on your Windows PC, the game's audio, and your microphone (if that is enabled) at the same time without any sync issues.
To activate the record feature directly for X-Box recording on your Windows PC use this key combo: Press and hold the ALT and Windows logo keys while pressing the "R" key. Once you've tapped the "R" key you can let go of the other keys. Wait a little bit because the response can be slow sometimes or may not register the first time. So you may have to try it again. Depending on the demands the game or other content you're trying to record your Windows PC may be super responsive or kinda sluggish. This can also determine whether or not you can record in full screen mode, the video resolution, etc. Something to test out based on your needs and the capabilities of your Windows PC. When the record overlay appears it won't be something you can move around while a recording is being made.
Using ALT + Windows Logo key + "G" key combo brings up the general settings menus which lets you set how the record software will work for you. There should be a sub menu that asks to treat your source as a game feed for recording. By ticking that box you're basically fooling it into making recordings of that feed in the future as though it were a game feed even if it isn't. Like I can record any web browser feed because I once told the software that it is a game feed. What you currently cannot do is record the desktop of your Windows PC for screen capture. Useful for making tutorials. Now getting back to the settings menus you can drag those around to place them where you like. That includes where the record indicator overlay will appear. Choose some portion of the screen where it won't interfere / hide any onscreen clickable spots that your feed uses. So if you place it at the top left corner of your screen you won't be able to close that tab or browser or video source because the record overlay will be blocking it.
One other thing to be aware of is when you exit the screen you're recording or change resolution the recording automatically stops. If you're changing between tabs in your browser it is prone to stopping each time you do that. The video capture files will be in .MP4 format, typically will appear in a new or existing folder called "captures", which may appear in the VIDEOS folder on your C drive.
You can use an external streaming device.
If you can plug in a Firestick to your tv, it will do what you need for this box
@@bruceevans3746 A recorder will connect between the Firestick and TV, since newer TV'S don't have outputs. It will not record protected content.

The TV doesn't have to be on when you are recording, but the firestick does. You don't need the TV to record if I understood the video correctly, but you need the TV on when you're setting up to record, just so you can see what you're doing, since the device doesn't have a display screen like the similar, but much more expensive Unisheen device.
Does it have a pause so edits can be done
