    Dvr replacement info...

    Help with making DVD's...

    Since there are no Directv Tivo's which have internal DVD burners, can someone recommend a good external DVD burner to use?

    Upconversion Question

    My HDTV is a Sony 53"(4x3 format). My DVD player for movies is a Zenith DB318. When I upconvert a "full screen" DVD to 1080i the image is reformatted to 16x9 which I expected. However, when I upconvert a "wide screen" DVD to 1080i, the image is smaller(like going from a 1.78:1 image to a...
