As many of you know, and for those who don't, before the release of Bin 2.79, you had to upload Bin 1.84 in order to format you HDD for PVR purposes. Now you can use Bins 2.79-2.82 to format the HDD so no more loading an extra bin and reloading current bin to make PVR work.

To setup PVR its pretty simple. First plug in your HDD in the USB slot located on back of the IPro. Then on your remote, MENU-PVR-PVR SETUP-HDD format and click OK. You will see it formatting and can take upto 5 min. After format is done you should see the total HDD size and the Free HDD Space. For those who's HDD's will not format through Ipro, it is usually do to either setup problems or incompatible USB enclosures. Try using Partition Magic and formatting the HD to Linux EXT3.

I use a Fujitsu 80GB 2.5" Laptop HD with a RocketFish HD Enclosure
