Capturing and burning directly without re-encoding

[Insomnis]

What I'm trying to do is to make my computer work as a vcr, and burn directly to a DVDr.

Is there any software out there that does it?

I have WinDVR 2.0, and encoding with it works great, unfortunatly when I try to burn the encoded mpeg file, every authoring application re-encodes the file, this takes a long time. And I don't see why since the movie is alreade encoded in mpg2.

intervideo windvd recorder supposedly records straight to dvd.

Hi,

I record also with WINDVR2 but the files don't seem to be completely DVD compliant. Using this little trick will do it: Get Cyberlink's PowerVCR II 3.0 and use the editor function. Very helpful to cut out all commercials. If you don't have any commercials just select the whole clip and cut. PowerVCR will not render but save the file under a new name and fix the MPEG problem. Load e.g. in Ulead's DVD movie factory and no rendering at all will occur. It will just create the VOBs and the DVD structure.

That's the fastest way and I have tried many things - believe me.
