I posted this over on AV123 but know somem of you dont go over there anymore. If you can offer any imput to this I would appriciate it.
I have a guy that asked me to set his system up like this...
HD signal, DVR box (not sure if it is HD or not. Will find out more this week)
He wants to take the HD signal and run it to the computer to record by. He also wants to run a S-vid to the computer from the DVR. His goal is to make a Media Library. Use a tuner card or whatever it needs to be to record on the computer and to copy the DVR to the compuer..and then turn around and burn it to dvd or blu-ray.
We just talked about this breifly but before I get to involved in figureing it out I want to know what it will take. What kind of hardware do you guys suggest? Money is really not an issue with this guy. This is on a PC and not a Mac. Right now he has Vista but may look at upgrading to windows 7 right away.
Point me in the right direction. Give me some hardware options that will give good quality. Software? I think Nero should work to burn the stuff to DVD once its on the computer.
Youw would think that me being an IT guy I would know how to do this. I suppose I can figure it out..but I know there are some of you that do this all the time so getting good recommendations for the hardware and stuff is better for me. He is is going to go through with this, I will propably have to start on it next week. Work on it in my spare time.
So..Whats out there that I need to look at?
Thanks for all the help
