Unattended Recording
Hi,
Does anyone know of a Macintosh program that will allow me to record Component Video through my BlackMagic Intensity pro like a DVR or VCR? I don't mind doing it the old fashioned way ie.; set the start time and tell it how long.... and then walk away with the cable box tuned to the right channel. I would feel ahead of the game if I could just record the cable signals I'm paying for in HD with what I have at hand unattended on a schedule, without paying "rent" for a DVR unit. The USB and PCI "unencrypted QAM" and ATSC hardware/software combinations out there are useless tha way that Time Warner Cable delivers the signal to me. I can get an y channel I'm paying for just fine through the component connections, I'm just looking to do timed recording this way. Thanks! Pete d. |

Let's try it this way.............................................
Is there a hardware encoder that accepts COMPONENT input and outputs through Firewire, USB and records in real time to mpeg2? Or is there a solution that records through COMPONENT input directly to DVD? Help........... Pete D. |

Wow. That looks genuinely cool and exciting. Does any one have experience with the recording quality and stability of this device?
(I feel like getting one already!) Andrew |

Peter,
This was a similar discussion: http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/sony-hvr-...-pro-card.html Also, VLC Media player works with capture devices utilizing their hardware capabilities. May be worth a try. VLC media player for Mac OS X John |

Welllllllllllll.... It looks cool but I beleive it has some of the same limitations of other devices that record off of set top boxes - and it doesn't do HD. Close though...... Pete |
