Can existing HD recordings be decrypted?

I've tried searching for an answer to the question in the title but all the results appear to be several years old, or for another Humax model.

The long story short is that I have some old HD recordings that I would like to preserve, and I want to understand what my options are.

1. Can existing HD recordings be decrypted?
2. Is it possible to get the encrypted recordings to play on another Humax device or are they tied to the specific unit*?
3. Could I use a HDMI capture device to capture the encrypted recordings?

*It's my understanding that the Foxsat has a built-in chip, that is responsible for the encryption. Therefore the recordings need that specific chip (or more to the point, the unique key it contains) in order to be decrypted.
