What device(s) would make it possible to record the games to DVD. Therefore making it possible to copy and distribute? I'd like to start making a video library of all Redskins games, and I'm sure others here would like to also. Any suggestions? Can those DVR type devices do that? Tivo?

i think i heard something like you have to pay 100 bucks before you can copy anything to rewriteable dvds. that's so you don't get sued for copying things, i think. that's my vague idea of how it works. i might be wrong though.

I have a Panasonic DMR E80H, have had it for a couple of years. Not only does it record to hard drive but you can then edit and burn to DVD. I like it a lot.

There are a ton of similar devices on the market and this year should see the launch of PC based media share devices. A couple of chaps on here record to their PC's and edit down from there.

As for LEGALLY copying the stuff for distribution. That has to be copyright infringement.

Remember to take into consideration the type of media you want to record to. DVD comes in more than one format. +R/RW and -R/RW, and occasionally in -RAM. For example if your DVD Recorder records only to +R/RW and your computer on reads -R/RW well then it was a big waste of money. The DVD market is very unstable with a specific format...There are blue laser dvds as opposed to red laser, there is even something like an HDDVD -R/RW for hi def....
Don't spend too much money because in a few years it could be worthless...

just get a tv card for your computer (20-30$) and you hook up your tv's video out...
