I'm looking for some sort of hard drive to record my VHS tapes on - most of which are home-recorded from TV. Some contain commercials; others have 2 or 3 movies on one tape. My objective is to remove commercials and delete movies from the tapes that have more than one. I would then record the edited "movies" to DVD. Is this a job for a Tivo or the like?

RCA also makes one, but I couldn't find it. Their website sucks big time, so I wasn't going to search forever (hey, I did this for free!). I believe I've seen another such product, but I can't remember who makes it -- sorry. You may find more of these types of recorders coming later in the year (Sept/Oct).
I don't know about the availability, but the Toshiba allows up to 1.5Mb/s PCM recording data rate on the analog audio input. The rest of all DVD recorders limit you to compressed 192 or 384kb/s Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo (great,... if you're "hearing impaired"). At this time, there are no consumer DVD recorders that have digital inputs. Real bummer.
Sounds like a job for a computer.
