In Reply to: Simplest and Cheapest way to record HDTV Programs. posted by Cut-Throat on March 20, 2005 at 09:57:02:
Most of the Set Top Boxes will downconvert the HD signal to an SD signal (one a VCR can handle). This is the simplest and cheapest way to record the program. However, it won't be HD -- it will be SD. The next cheapest is to get something like the HD TiVO boxes with HD recording capability for real HD recording.Or, if you have a really fast and expensive computer (3.xGHz, Windows XP, Pentium 4, etc), you can use it to record HD (1080i and 720p) programs from your STB with Windows Media 9 (aka VC-9). Check out Microsoft's site if you want to know more. And if you're really interested, there's a long thread on AVS Forum with tons of info regarding settings, how to, data rates, etc that I can direct you to.
