How do DVD recorders deal with long/large recordings?
Hello
I don't know anybody who has ever owned a DVD recorder but I'm interested in them. I need to get some feedback on how they generally operate.
I want to record sporting events in SDTV (720p) that run for 4 hours or longer per event. Usually these recordings take up around 8 GB via my computer's DTV card. This means the file size will be greater than fits on a standard, cheap, easily purchased blank DVD holding 4.37 GB.
Dual layer DVDs are too expensive and it's very hard to find DVD-R DL media where I live.
Do DVD recorders burn recordings greater than 4.37 GB to a single DVD? If so, how? Do they re-compress the video quality down until it will fit? If so wouldn't this take a very long time?
Secondly, how long do DVD recorders usually take to burn a full DVD? I may be weird but the idea of starting a 'burn' on a DVD recorder then waiting longer than a few seconds for the burn, is bizarre but is that the normal experience?
This is kind of long, but I hope it helps:
I own a Magnavox DVD recorder. I picked it up from walmart for about $100. I have the same desire to record sports programs for posterity.
However, to answer your Q, Most recorders have recording mode settings, just like a VCR would (SP, EP, LP etc.). SP is the standard which lasts around 2 hours. The picture quality is good, with very little dither (grainy, blocky pixels). An average sports broadcast is around 3 to 3.5 hours, so for that, you would probably record in EP (3 hrs) or LP (4 hrs). There is a little blockiness, but not enough to distract you from the games. SLP is 6 hours, but you really don't want to record in that mode because it doesn't really capture and show fast moving images well. Use this mode for tv episodes and for maximizing your disc, not sports.
The HQ mode is really pristine, except it's only 1 hour total, so that's the drawback there. I test recorded some NBA playoff footage, and it was identical to the satellite images, very crisp and clear. I have a Satellite DVR, so I can record the game on the hard drive, and plan ahead to how I want to put the game on DVD.
Note that most, if not all DVD recorders have editing features in them that include menus, title adding, chapter sets, etc.
What I do is record the game on a DVD+RW disc, edit it, take out the commercials and other unwanted stuff. You can't go back and save edits on +R and -R discs. If you take the time to edit these and finalize the changes, they won't save on those formats. I found that out the hard way. Record the game on an RW disc (since it's rewritable, kinda like a plastic hard drive), and follow your menu screens to make your disc compatible (so other DVD players can read them).
*** I use my PC for the next part.***
Then take that disc (once you are satisfied with your edits) and copy it onto a +R or -R disc. Then you can clean off the RW disc and use it again.
Discs take about 20-30 seconds to burn once you stop recording on them.
