I just bought an HDTV, and I now get ESPN HD. As a K-State grad, I was thrilled to see that the KSU/Cal game on August 23rd will be broadcast in HD... except that I'll be at the game!
I would love to show off my new TV to my friends by inviting them over to re-watch the game in HDTV (if we win, of course), but here's the problem: I have no means of recording it!
I can't afford to shell out a bunch of money for an HD PVR, especially since I hear the ealiest models aren't that great. Likewise, I can't afford a D-VHS.
There is a site that rents the JVC D-VHS unit, but that unit only accepts firewire input, and the box my provider supplies only has component output.
Here's my question: Would anyone with the proper equipment be willing to record this game for me on a D-VHS? I'd pay for the cost of the tape and the shipping, but legally, I couldn't pay anything additional for the game or your services. Then, I could just rent a D-VHS player for a day to play the game.
Please let me know if you're interested, you'd be doing me a huge favor.
