Using a DVD recorder to record radio programs

Sounds interesting? I have used a VHS tape machine to record radio concerts and am delighted with the 6 hrs without interruption. How would you compare the quality using the DVD recorder?

I too have burned audio only on DVD. Sound quality is very good. That is why you will never see a DVD recorder with digital inputs.

>>"I was also wondering if I were to feed prerecorded dvd video/audio signals to the dvd recorder via my receiver would the copy guard still be a factor or will the receiver act as a filter and allow the dvd recorder to copy the movie?"<<

Forget that, if the DVD you want to copy has copy protection your receiver will not filter it out.

What you can record from a copy protected DVD is the audio only. The copy code protection is in the video carrier. Just disconnect the video from the DVD recorder.

Go with a computer program (plaenty out ther in cyberspace to copy movies) to copy that DDVD stuff. or you will orobaly get scrwed up with macrovision\.Do a test for us and tell upo i f Macrcrovision is just a "vision" thing.But on your computer it's all ones and zero's.I don't feel bad for MPAAA when someone wants to back up a CD or even rent and watch latter.But they release a new movie and within 48 hours it's being sold with covce art (never mind you a see a woman walk in front of the bootlegger who is coipying a film in a thatre).But have heard that Bill Gates has offered up "Micrsoft 10 player" instead of Macrovison which is somehow as close to needing a "key" disc before play or somehting like and if this happens I will bum out.For the price of $50 for "Lawrence Of Arabia" I feel I should be able to back it up just the way music folks don't want to dsetroy their CD's in car play.And foget inputs you can't even get the weasels who make the equipent put a 5.1 out ona DVD a 'la componnet outputs meaning you use their digital output but if you want to tweak the sound,bass managemnent etc.No wonder the software manufacturers compolain all the time they are doing with softwar what Anericans did with cars up till the 70's.Contemptible greedheads who if you wanted FM or air conditioning thought they should make more money.Then came the Japanese with two trim lines and cleaned there clocks and well all know what happened.If you expriment ad to the post.

Chazzbo, with all due respect, what the heck are you rambling about????

Sulloj,....LOL, there was a program you could buy and install in your computer. It would defeat the copy code protection and allow the user to make a perfect 5.1 copy of a (copy protected DVD). It was represented as "for back-up only" of a DVD owned by the person using the program. Through extensive lawsuites the Fed stopped the sale of the program. Infact it is even illegal to own one now. Careful Big Brother is watching......

I should of mentioned further in my post when I spoke of recording audio only from a copy protected DVD, I was thinking of a live concert DVD you might want to record the audio from. You know for back-up purposes only.

Have you discovered how to record individual tracks on DVD and select them at random like you would from a CD?
