    Recording from HD camcorder to D-VHS

    A friend recorded a concert on a Sony HD Camcorder. I tried to dub it to D-VHS using firewire. Camcorder to vcr via firewire and vcr to old Panasonic HD RPTV via component. Watching the camcorder feed passing through the vcr looked fine. JVC vcr also recognized the Sony camcorder with model...

    Sundance HD

    How come Sundance HD programs are available on ON DEMAND such as Elvis Costello but there isn't a regular HD channel to watch. I could usually record ON DEMAND HD on Comcast but FIOS QAM channels have too many possibilities to search through since they use numbers like 84.123 which means 1000...

    Can't record through DVR firewire now

    I used to be able to offload DVR content in HD to my D-VHS deck but now if I play a DVR recording with vcr input set to firewire for cable box I get a black screen. If I switch my TV to the vcr input I can see the HD program playing back but there isn't any sound, also only stop and play...

These segments were okay on CMT when I watched this in SD. Also sound was only in 2.0 instead of 5.1. I will...

    comcast 3412 sync issue with d-vhs

    Just started a week ago. D-vhs input on sony xbr 960 out of sync when viewing content from dvr. Rebooting helps sometime but never lasts. Diagnostic menu says firewire on 3412 enabled but NOT active. Is this the problem. I can still record from i-link but it's hit or miss as to sync.

    Soundstage NOT 5.1 in Phila. PA area

    I e-mailed comcast why PBS Soundstage is broadcast in 2.0 stereo rather than 5.1 surround. No response. Could this be local channel 12 's fault or cable head-end problem. I can't pick up channel off air to compare sound format. comcast coatesville area

After rebooting deck and dvr sync is restored but it doesn't last. Also I've taped and sync is correct, stopped...
