Hi, I'm planning to get Sony rdr hx910 as my 1st dvdr mainly due to the HQ+ recording and wandering if anyone care to give comment on pic Q. Also I need clarification on few items:

1. can you record to the PC from the output of dvdr ( thru s-video or composite o/p) or is there
some sort of macrovision protection. I have a Canopus ADVC 50 for pc capturing. I know it
sort of defeat the purpose of dvdr but I'm planning to do timer recording (when I'm not home)
and output it to pc then may be re-encode to divx, that's why the HQ+ on Sony is important to
me. FYI we don't have 'TIVO' in my country.

2. Is there a software that allow timer recording for pc?

Thanks, and sorry if this is not the correct forum to post
