STUFF • This webcast is sponsored by Hitachi • Digital Life 2007 in NYC was a blast. There were lots of things to see and a much fun to be had. We'd like to thank all the fans and viewers that we met at the show. Whether you stopped by to say high, or hung out to chat for awhile it was great to meet the folks that make DL.TV such a great show. We hope to see all of you again at Digital Life 2008. • Besides the highlight clips we also featured our first video emails courtesy of Tim and Rodney. • Tim had a question about saving over the air HDTV broadcasts. Robert's suggestions included the easiest, although a somewhat expensive option of a TiVo Series 3 or TiVo HD DVR plus a subscription to the TiVo service. If you want to go the PC route, there are a variety of USB/PCI/PCIe digital tuner options to choose from such as this USB-based tuner from Pinnacle Systems , and DIY'ers should definitely check out ExtremeTech's Media PC Build It article. PCAlchemy is also a great resource for HD tuner hardware and software options, and AVS Forum's HDTV section has categories related to HDTV recording and reception. Robert also thinks that SnapStream Media's Beyond TV is a worthy alternative to Windows Media Center, and Dave from Woodbury, MN feels that SageTV's PVR software deserved an honorable mention as well. • Rodney wanted to know how to burn an image to multiple burners. Short of picking up a CD/DVD duplicator the best option is using Nero with its burn to multiple burners function, however you will only be able to burn to drives at speed of the slowest drive. If you have 3 burners and 2 of them can burn at 40x while the other maxes out at 12x you'll be stuck burning 12x for all three with this option enabled. • Don't forget to email us (dl.tv@ziffdavis.com) your Wii console number.
