It sounds as though the PVR is not able to connect to your PC at USB 2.0. If the connection is USB 1.1 then the transfer rate slows down to more than you would expect but I dont know why. Elinker shows you if the connection made to your PC is USB 2.0 or not - do you remember what was displayed?
Make sure the USB drivers for yur USB controller is up to date. Some chipsets are worse than others also. VIA doesnt seem to have the best reputation whereas NEC has a good reputation. Intel USB controllers are OK now but some earlier ones could be very problematic. A cheap new USB cards/adaptors with NEC chipset may sort you out. This site can tell you if your drivers are up to date

Try using a 1 meter USB cable - needs to be a good quality one as others have found some USB cables cause problems or no connection at all. I once bought a 2.5" hard disk USB 2.0 caddy to connected a spare laptop hard drive to my USB port (from ebay). The USB cable supplied could not sustain a fast connection needed so I tried another USB cable (certified USB 2.0) that came with my Sony Camcorder and it worked fine.
Also, make sure nothing else is running on your machine when transfering - disconnect your machine from the network/internet and switch off messenger programmes, Antivirus, firewall and anything else running.
On the PVR, tune to a channel that is not showing any programmes (this stops the PVR automatically recording it (buffering)) or as soon as it starts up quickly go into the system status menu before it starts to buffer the channel and so that it doesnt start to collect the EPG.
Also, if you are using laptop make sure the power supply is connected. If you dont have USB 2.0 ports on your machine you can buy a notebook card adaptor or PCI card adaptor for normal PCs for extra USB 2.0 ports.
Of course if you are feeling more adventurous you could try using 9200tReadFiles (
