    Blue Laser HIDEF DVD recorder available now!

    On the back of the recorder are 2 ilink or firewire connections. This will probably be the only way to record HD with this recorder in the states. So if you buy a HD receiver or integrated HDTV make sure you get one with firewire out.

    DVHS decks for $600. Ok, I'm starting to get tempted.

    You can also encode your own recorded high def transport streams to WM9 with windows media encoder by using elecard and windvd4 filters. Ive encoded about 25 hd recordings so far and the results are really remarkable. I encoded Gladiator with a 1 pass variable bit rate with a resolution of...

    DVHS decks for $600. Ok, I'm starting to get tempted.

    Mehdy I really cant make out your point most of the time, you keep referring to DVHS as dog-vhs. Its really apparent you dont know what your talking about and I wish you would spare the rest of us your negative BS. In your price break down you dont even mention the cost of a 3ghz pc that is...

    DVHS decks for $600. Ok, I'm starting to get tempted.

    Mehdy you are clueless and your post are painful to read. D-VHS has been out since 1999. For anyone that has the right equipment to record high def tv, D-vhs is the best product available. I have over 200 high def movies recorded on dvhs and havent had a single problem and the picture quality...

    DVHS decks for $600. Ok, I'm starting to get tempted.

    If you have OTA HD available then I would consider buying if you want to record HD material. I wouldnt buy one if you only plan to watch DTheater movies. Also, dish is releasing a set top box with firewire out so if your a dish customer, recording HDHBO, HDShowtime and HDDiscovery channel is...

    Do any over-the-counter teeth whiteners really work?

    I did the Britesmile about 2 months ago as a gift to myself for going 2 years without a smoke. It was $400 at the office I went to. I didnt think my teeth were that bad but I actually dropped 19 shades in the one hour treatment. I know its expensive but for me it was definately worth the money...

    The D-VHS Friendly Enthusiasts Thread

    WEll I dont have Toy Story recorded, it was shown on ABC in HD though. I do have Shrek and I think it is one of the cleanest presentations on HBOHD, Final Fantasy was also pretty impressive. I took a few screen shots of Shrek and put them on the web. I wish I could put the original screen...

    Listen to this Joke.... Ebay Auction

    Does the receiver work? Does it have any phsical damage? Brand new doesnt necessarily mean unopened. If it works and is in good condition, I dont think there is anything you can do.

    THX demos and all that jazz...

    Go to this site to download the THX and Dolby intros, there is also a 10 minute demo called THX-WOW that is very cool. The THX WOW is samples from Star Wars, Indiana jones and Willow in Anamorphic widescreen and 5.1 DD. I actually made a DVD with 10 of the intros and the WOW demo all accessed...

    What would it take for YOU to get D-Theater?

    Damin, Its just amusing to read people giving opinions on Dvhs when their main display is a 27" ntsc set. DVD is good for direct view analog TV's. The whole thing comes down to size. If your under 55" most will be happy with DVD. Once you go above 55" DVD is very lacking. Right now DVHS is...

    What would it take for YOU to get D-Theater?

    Why do you people even post to these topics if you dont even own a HDTV? Get your priorities in-line first, go buy a HDTV then worry about DVHS. If you dont have a HDTV you probably dont even have a progressive scan DVD player. D-VHS is pointless unless you have a HDTV and to really see the...
