    No, you won’t be able to watch recordings on any Windows equipment such as laptops, as they are capable of making illegal copies. It is a restriction imposed by the broadcasters to avoid copyright infringements.

      I think you will find that is blocked too. Viewing channels on a TV is restricted to the address your boxes are installed at (another broadcaster restriction).
