I use my dvd recorder & save them all to the hard drive then when i get enough to fit on a disc i burn each disc in order of the babes or the channel their on. Then you get a dvd ripping software from the net & rip them to your pc. After that you can choose rapidshare or megaupload etc to share your content.

I hope that gives you a bit of an idea.

You'll either need a DVD recorder or a capture device. There's a few threads in the Tech Zone that may help you.

Here's a recent post that may start you off in the right direction if you choose the DVD Recorder option.

I've got a panasonic ex78-dmr & it's fucken cool. It plays mp3 - avi & Mpeg files from the net & when you record stuff to the hard drive you can still edit it example - if you recorded a movie of channel 5 You can delete all the breaks with out damaging the recording.

Same as mine Tintin. It makes a hell of a racket nowadays when I'm burning discs (its been used quite well). Not sure what the recommended way of cleaning a DVD recorder is (I'm guessing it makes the noise because it requires cleaning).

I'm on a Sony RDR-HX725 and have a similar intermittent noise issue i.e. some 'grinding' at the start of - or very end of - dubbing to a DVD rewritable. Only seems to happen when using high-speed dubbing.

Not sure if the grinding is from the hard drive or the DVD writer. I'm guessing the latter as I don't get any noise when doing normal playback from the hard drive so I'm hoping it's just the writer scanning over the disk.

However I think I might have a bad sector on the hard drive as occasionally when using the A-B erase feature, an end file size that might be expected at 2GB shows 4 or 5 times that and/or the resultant file cannot be played/edited or, worst case scenario, even deleted. Re-formatting the HD will clear the rogue file but the bad sector will rear its ugly head again (a real killer if it occurs during a good show!). My only workaround is to leave the bad recording on there (it's only 1.9GB) and fingers-crossed all other recordings stay clean.

Another option would be to replace the hard drive which doesn't appear too difficult (not a lot different from installing one in a PC).

great info

Just a quick question.

What type of connections were you using to plug into your old DVD player?

If it was Phono sockets or S-VHS, then may I suggest you buy a Skart to Phono/S-VHS lead. And that would still allow you to use your capture device. As Most if not all DVD players come with at least one Skart output.

A newbie here! Quick question how do you record from sky in high quality?

Got Sky+ HD and panasonic DVD recorder

And whats the best way to record and convert videos in HQ to other formats (i.e. avi, wmv, mkv etc)


Thanks in advance.

I moved your last post asking the same question to the Tech Section of the forum
here http://www.babeshows.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?fid=23
which is where such questions should be posted.
There is lots of useful info there about video stuff.
I would have sent you a PM about it, but you have PMs turned off in your UserCP
