I was watching the re-broadcast of the Footprint show on the HD channel on a 211 then went to bed to finish it up and the channel wasn't there on my 622.

    So can anyone give me their opinion on this? Should I capture through a s-video device or go the sata route? is there a difference in quality. i found a dvd burner with component inputs but it only records in 480p so it is not worth the price $199 while other dvd burners are $99 with...

    OFFICIAL External Storage Information

    thank for the reply, are the file resolutions kept intact and transferred in the original resolution to dvd? i'm trying to figure out if it's worth the effort to extract them or just capture using s-video capture device. anyone know of a stand-alone dvd burner with component inputs?

    How do I transfer recorded shows...

    true, i can do that directy to my pc also with a capture device and i considered that route but i haven't been able to find one with anything better than a s-video connection so hd shows won't be hd. any burners out there with a hdmi or component video connection.

    dual layer disks hold 8gb, none of the shows i record are larger than that. my main concern is that hdds can and will fail and we can't even back up the contents of the ext hdd anywhere like to another hdd.

    How do I transfer recorded shows...

    well we are paying monthly fees and even a fee just to activate the ability to use the usb drive so to me with all that money tied up we should be able to do as we please with the files except reproduce them for resale.

    HDDs are expensive and take up a lot more space than a dvd and what happens if it fails. plus i can play the dvds on other tvs that are not connected to receiver with the usb drive. why don't they let us network the receivers and play the files on any reciever in my home. even with that...
