He's already told you what you need - if you want a small device to do it, it's a question of making the components required small and with a simple OS.

Nope still don't know what you're getting at. USB capture devices exist, they work with XP, Linux or Mac.

If you are asking about connecting directly to the TV, that's not practical unless you're an experienced analog/digital circuit designer. You'd have to break into the TV circuitry which would be unique for each TV. Thus it makes no real sense to do it that way. The best way is as blueroomelectronics stated.

i thought video capturing or program storing was illegal since they do sell complete seasons?

No--DVRs are common and legal. Google 'TiVO' and 'MythTV'.

thank u my friends but i mean what i said
i want to do this project in my college and i want some information about it
i want a circuit like video cd but dealing with flash memory not cds
please try to help me

 

[blueroomelectronics]

My advice: pick a project you understand.

You appear to have no grasp of such a projects compexity.

ohhhhhhh , Haytham
this is really a big challenge
it is a hard task to do
and it needs the experts of electro-tech-online to solve it
ask blueroom and Nigel for help with this

i kinda get his idea...
i have a PVR and i've been thinking of a way to get videos of it

You want videos of your PVR?

 

[netotse]

yes...it has a usb slot but i dont think thats meant for copying stuff off it

You need to read the instructions, some allow you to get digital data off it, most don't - you can only copy the analogue plackback signals.

ok...thanks a bunch...i think this doesnt(i've been meaning to ask u either of you two a quick question can i ask it here...dont think it requires starting a new thread)
