I recently bought a Toshiba Tivo with a DVD recorder. The main reason I
bought this unit is to transfer my 8mm video home movies to DVD. With
this unit you first transfer it to the hard drive then to a DVD-R. As I
was transfering I noticed that the picture was somewhat grainy so I
bought a Sony DVD recorder just to see if I would get the same result by
transfering the tapes directly to the DVD-R. So I plugged my camcorder
into the Sony and the transfer came out crystal clear. Also tv programs
come out way clearer on a DVD-RW on the Sony than on the Tivo harddrive.
(Both were recorded in HQ)!
I also noticed when I Tivoed the Grammys in HQ, they still had a lot of
pixalation especially when ever there was stobe lights.
