I wanted to get a TV show from my Comcast DVR and burn it onto a DVD that I could play at a later time… I know most of you are thinking, “Wait… why wouldn’t you just hook up a DVD recorder to your cable box via firewire and hit record?”
Well, I suppose I wanted a challenge. Anyway, I thought I would pass it along for your general consumption. This is written by a video newbie, for a newbie… This is educational only. Don’t steal stuff… don’t break copyrights, etc. I did this as an adventure into video formats… I hope you find it enlightening. I am not a video professional. I am a casual consumer mac user… I know you are probably smarter than me. If you have useful comments, please leave them.
Perhaps some one else has figured this out already… but if not, I’ll share how I got it working.
First things first. I have Comcast Digital Cable (in Denver, CO) with a motorola DCT-3412 DVR. I am running Tiger on an original 500Mhz Titanium powerbook. (I know…. a real screamer - but the good news is, your mac is probably better than mine, and therefore it should do all of this…. just faster!)
Nobody could argue anything other than the Apple iPhone was the best new cell phone released in 2007. Incredible design, off-the-wall looks, marketing and usability. The iPhone re-wrote the book on mobile phones and many of the newer phones coming on the market are attempting to copy or better Apple’s design.
But possibly one of the best features of the iPhone is the frankly incredible range of accessories being made by just about every manufacturer on the planet. Every one wants a piece of the iPhone. Cases are a case in point (sic). But which case is right for you, and more importantly, which case will do the best job of protecting your shiny new iPhone while maintaining it’s usability and looks?Here are the five best iPhone cases, ranked by the Knowles destructotest™ method.
Why spend more during times of economic hardships. You may very well spend them on refurb Apple products that come at a cheaper price compared to the newer ones.
According to an article published by Macworld, iPhone users can use the $1 Sonic lighter App can be used as a voting machine for your favourite Oscar nominee. Slumdog is leading the way.. Smule can be used to track the votes whenever any user launches the App.
