Looking for software to burn Tivo recordings to DVD?

Looking for software to burn Tivo recordings to DVD Specifically, I would like to archive several episodes (30 minutes each) on single DVDs without having to play them 1 at a time. Lots of products will record to DVD while you watch the vid on your PC. However, I want to automate the process - to specify a list of video files and have them transferred one after the other while I am at work.

Any help or recommendations are much appreciated. Asked by Khaez 54 months ago Similar Questions: software burn Tivo recordings DVD Recent Questions About: software burn Tivo recordings DVD Computers > Software.

After multiple trials & errors, I settled on 1 simple capture package and a different dvd writer package. Pinnacle Studio Moviebox comes in USB & DV (Firewire) formats. Each has an external video capture box that connects to the RCA video/audio jacks of your "source" and can convert the video signal to DV (video camera format) or MPEG of various compressions.

I have a slow cpu (1.3 Ghz) & can only convert to DV, but your PC's specs mean you can record directly at, say 4000 Kbps, & have 4 hrs. Per dvd. The Pinnacle Studio software gives a great preview & editing system; and you can see what is happening as you capture.

I have to use 2 steps: record to high-quality DV in real time to edit & then convert the edited video to mpeg (this process takes 4 minutes for every 1 of video with my 1.3G cpu). If your PC is fast enough to pre-convert from the breakout box, you can eliminate the 2nd conversion. The 2nd software I use is Ulead's MovieFactory.

It is very easy to use & has never given me an error message, where Nero always has. The menu making & disc burning process usually takes 20-30 minutes for assembled mpeg files. If DV file need to be coverted, the time expands by about 4 to 1.

What I do is capture the video to DV via the breakout box in 10 - 15 min. Chunks (commercial to commercial), edit to taste, & save/convert the edited material to mpeg. Then I open the Ulead MovieFactory (I use ver.

2, but ver. 3 is available now), create a disc file & select all of the mpegs that I want on the dvd in the order I want them. The MovieFactory keeps very good track of the disc capacity.

When I fill the disc, I burn it. Just that simple. If the burn specs for mpeg match the saved files specs, no further conversion happens & no video quality is lost.

I set both the video & audio in both packages to exactly the same and the MovieFactory simply assembles & burns the video clips to dvd. All this comes after trying 4 different breakout boxes to capture the video and Pinnacle Studio, Edition, Liquid Edition, Ulead Video Studio, Roxio, & Nero as my capture/recording software. The Pinnacle software will also burn to dvd, but I prefer the MovieFactory's greater flexibility.

I paid $180. Plus tax for my Studio DV Firewire & have never regretted a cent of it. It has captured & edited over 50 dvd's & gives me lots of control over the editing process.

The Ulead MovieFactory runs about $50. Sources: http://forums.cnet.com/5208-6644_102-0.html?threadID=64254 .

New software. I'm surprised that you have not heard of the new software upgrade that Tivo is "pushing" out to their subscribers. The new software version is 7.

Xx; part of this upgrade is to give the subscriber the ability to upload their saved shows, to their computers and then burn the show to DVD. This assumes that 1) you own a Series 2 tivo unit; 2) your Tivo unit is networked with your computer and 3) your computer must be running the latest Tivo desktop software (which also adds the option of Tivo Home media). Home media, using the Tivo desktop software creates a Tivo "media server" on your computer, where you can share out pictures and music to your Tivo unit.

Here is a link to a respective forum site, that should be able to give you more information. tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/ Sources: my opinion .

What type of CD/DVD do I use to burn computer software I downloaded and purchased.

I use DVD-R DVD to burn my videos to- however- my software for my digital camera will only allow appx 14 minutes of vide.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
