Hello everyone

How do you record off the fly?
Which dvd burning software to use?
The output on the 102g, where to hookup that?. I think that is for recording not sure.

Thanks in advnce.

Just hit the record button in MT, (little red circle, bottom left). It will record whatever you are viewing, on your pc in mpeg2 format. The location of the record directory can be changed in your options, (general options, if I'm not mistaken), and should be set to a drive with lots of free space. Your recordings can then be converted and burned to dvd with any dvd authoring software.

Enough? Or do you need more?

yes I realise that. But I want to know is if I can record on to dvd without saving the file to my hard drive. How do you use the output connection on the 102g card?. Do you hook that to your dvd burner or something?.

I would say no, because the output on a dvb completely bypasses your dvb app, (in your case, MT). So I guess it would likely do you no good. Hmm, so what the hell IS the output on a dvb card for? I've never thought about it before, because I never had any use for it. Interesting question. Anyone?

I think the output is satellite signal pass through or something like this.

Why don't you save it on the hard drive then burn it to the computer. If you still don't like to do that then I guess you can use a video card with both VGA and S video out. then you can feed the audio and S video to the recorder.

You have a PIII, it's a little bit underpower for the task I think. Hope that helps.
