Is there any portable HDTV Recording technology in the pipeline?

Question

I was wondering if there is anything like a VCR for HDTV in development or production. I'm looking for something that can record HDTV, and then I can have it, like a video tape or HD-DVD. I already have a DVR that can record, but it's stuck in the DVR and can't be kept permanently or shared with others, and it is also limited by the DVR's Hard Drive size.

To This_One_Dude: No I'm counting on the other capitalists and entrepeneurs out there like Steve Jobs and Wozniak, Bill Gates, the guys who founded Google or Yahoo. Notice how this stuff doesn't get created in socialist countries? Ever wonder why?

Answer 1

They already have a Blu-Ray burner out for the computer, so they will most likely come out with a Blu-Ray DVD recorder you can hook up to your TV, and probably and HD-DVD one as well.

Answer 2

There's D-VHS; it's been out for years, but it's a niche format that will never even be as successful as Laserdisc or DAT.

There are hacks for some HD DVRs to add Firewire ports so that the contents of the DVR can be transferred to a PC and edited or archived. Try searching on the model of your PVR and Firewire and see what turns up.

You can buy HD recordable discs already at your local Sony Store. The blanks are expensive, but so were DVDR and CDR in the beginning.

i might say that a pipeline might desire to be the main secure thank you to transport oil. If any leaks ensue, there are shutoffs that would supply up the bypass, in assessment to a tanker that crashes on the rocks or a truck that overturns.

I'm sure your hero, Ken Lay, will help you. Those poor rich people like you really need to help each other out!
