PVR's

[Merv Curley]

Marc Lijour  just mentioned some hardware that I am interested in knowing 
more about.  Personal Video recorders.  I missed the presentation at Tlug 
that Marc mentioned.

I just installed a Home theater system and am now interested in recording 
prog's from my Hi-def cable box.  I gather the Rogers PVR can only record 
to its hard drive, no DVD transfer, maybe it is only a low res recorder 
also.  The many PVR's that are available at twice the price have DVD 
capability but can't handle the hi-def signal,  only an NTSC analog one.  

Can anyone point me to a source of information on the subject?  I think it 
might require a lot of work to discuss it and besides it is well off-topic, 
not that it matters a lot from what I see. :-)

What I have found so far has not been helpful.

Merry, merry
