Record that HDTV...to VHS | More resources
|
| |
 David Katzmaier, senior editor | Ever wonder why you can't just tape HDTV shows and save them for later like you can with regular TV? The explanation is complex and long-winded, involving Hollywood's paranoia over copy protection, debates over standards and patent rights, confusion over physical connections, and concerns over bandwidth, but the end result is clear enough: the only way to record HDTV in full HDTV resolution is on DVR (which you can't take with you) or good ol' videocassette. Below you'll find three D-VHS decks from JVC that allow you to actually tape high-def--and yes, it does look great. Just remember: Be kind, rewind. | |||

| Review summary | CNET editor's take | CNET editor's take | If you must have an HD recorder/player today, this is an attractive yet expensive solution that likely will be supplanted by the HD DVD format in next few years. |
