Thanks for any help Terry Why would you want a DVR with component inputs? Component is analog. Digital is better. Chant the mantra with me, "Digital is better!" Oh, I see. You want to be able to record without restrictions? What are you? Some sort of a communist? I bet you want free bread and health care too? Well, the only line you are going to stand in is a line-up.

Eric
Sorry to learn that you are not feeling well. I also noticed you didn't suggest any 'digital input' DVR's that meet your suggestion. Until I find one, I'll continue to include RGB input as an option. Get well soon Terry "Eric" wrote in message ... " Terry Smith" wrote in message ...

I want a simple, standalone, set-top-box, HD recorder with analog components inputs also. I would even go with a D-VHS recorder with component inputs. ....but, besides building something out of a PC, it just aint gonna happen because the Entertainment Industry hates us. |

There are companies that build consumer electronics that could care less
what the entertainment industry thinks. The problem is that they have great engineers but they don't have a good sense of what people want. It's why Apple keeps beating out all of these Asian powerhouses. Apple actually thinks about the best way to implement new technologies. DVI is an example. At the point that someone got the idea to just forward the digital stream, I'm amazed that it didn't dawn on them to immediately go to the single cable for both Vid & Aud.
