message news Anybody know if there's a cheap DVD recorder capable of recording
at least eight hours? It's for a video capture application where
quality isn't an issue, so a cheap analogue-only dvd recorder from
a supermarket would be fine.

As you see from the replies, a bunch of unhelpful thicko's
who haven't got a clue.

Speak for your self. Camcorders record DV but the output from the
composite socket is Analogue. Like wise scart on recorders is
analogue.

Like I said a bunch of thicko's who ain't got a clue.
The conversion is by the DV camcorder into DV-AVI format
and "pass through" is via firewire in the digital domain.
I'll spell it out for you thicko,
The connections won't be analog via composite or scart
The connection will be firewire - digital
The DV cam will capture footage as DV-AVI, thats digital.
The DV cam won't record to DV tape,
It will "pass through" direct to the PC's capture software as DV-AVI
Digital from start to finish.

Not via the composite output socket or does your cam not have that. Then
again not many recorders have Firewire

You can always tell a Yorkshire man,
But you can't tell him much.


Read the thread moron, there is NO reference to composite,
the guide is to capture direct via firewire which all DV cams have
direct to a PC via firewire. The guide is about DV pass through
from capture to a PC in the digital domain. Not to a cheap DVD
recorder. As I said thicko's without a clue...

Oh Yes There is

QuoteI wanted video-capture -- meaning capture from a composite-video
input,
which all DVD recorders have, but Freeview PVRs don't. And I'd assumed
that DVD-recorders with hard drives are expensive? I'll have to check.

Anyway, I've looked at Maplin, as you suggested, and I've stumbled across
a £70 media player/recorder and hard drive enclosure that might be
exactly what I want. I think it must have a video input since it says
that it can record from a TV. /

I say old chap, would you mind awfully keeping the noise down? Some of
us are trying to sleep over here in umd and you're making a ghastly racket.

Now run along and wave your penis at strangers elsewhere. There's a good
man.

If you ask me what proof I have for these words,
I say it is because I am the punishment of God.

You want long play but via the analoque capture outputs from
a camcorder direct to DVD disk - that is expecting a lot on a
budget to be able to convert "on-the-fly" an analoque input
signal direct to DVD.
You would be best capturing to a HDD, but again it would be
converting "on-the-fly" the analoque feed from the cam to MPEG.

You've got the bloody cheek to call other posters thickos, when you can't
spell analogue and you don't know how to use an apostrophe. What does that
make you?
This has little to do with me as just came across this group, but his
grammar has nothing to do with his technical knowledge. I cannot comment
either way on that, but the fact you could only pick him up on his grammar
(presumably in childish retaliation for the "thick idiots" remark, shows you
have lost any technical argument else you would have argued against the
points you disagree with. He didn't spell analogue correctly (typo I'd
guess) and missed an apostrophe - who cares!

For what it's worth my cheap (£60) and awful Philips DVDR5500 recorder does
8 hours on single layer disks. It will do over 14 hours on dual layer.
