Re: [Avid-L2] BD recorders?

Well, that's a burner to hook to a computer. The ones I'm talking
about are regular video decks -- take A/V in and burn a disk in
real time. The decks here start at about $450 for discs only,
about $550 for hard disk/blue ray disk recorders. Look here for a
listing:

HOWEVER, after seeing Terry's comment about the US JVC unit only
having SD input, I checked the specs of the Japanese models. The
same. SD input only. HDMI and component output. You can only
record TV in HD, or copy your HD home videos from the camera's
SDHC chip or over USB. Unbelievable. Useless. Wreck the product.
But, hey, it stops piracy, right? NO.
