Digital Video Recorders

There are many places one might go to purchase a flash memory camcorder. In addition to a store like Best Buy, one might also consider purchasing from Amazon.

Omegle should ask you if you want to download a file with the chat text in it after the chat with the other user ends, it should be a .html, .htm, .xhtml, or a .txt file. Or you could just use Windows Screen Capture by pressing PrtSc, then going into MS-Paint, then pasting, then you can save it as a JPEG Image.

The JVC Everio GZ-MG37 Hard Drive Camcorder is one of the best camcorders for under $600.

"Friedrich Matthias of IG Farben/BASF developed the recording tape, including the oxide, the binder, and the backing material. Development of magnetic tape recorders in the late 1940s and early 1950s is associated with the Brush Development Company and its licensee, Ampex; the equally important development of magnetic tape media itself was led by Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company (now known as 3M)." huma nan

A beam of infrared light is sent out which is invisible to the human eye. However just like a digital camera the goggles can pick up the infrared light and convert it into the visible spectrum and display it on an small lcd screen inside the goggles. Wearing these on guard duty a couple years ago I found them very strange. First all you have no depth perception and if you look at anything too bright you're gonna get blinded (temporary). Sorry I don't know the technicalities but I would find out by looking for a book at your local library consortium under "how things work". Night Vision Goggles, (NVG), work by amplifying light � moonlight, starlight - in the Near Infra Red, (NIR), region of the spectrum � approx� 600nm to 930nm, (Gen III). NVGs incorporate Automatic Gain Control, (AGC), this controls the amplification, (gain), of the NVG which helps maintains an acceptable level of contrast of the image presented to the viewer. E.g. a scene viewed under illumination from the full moon will cause the NVG amplification / gain to reduce. The same scene viewed with little NIR illumination will cause the NVG amplification / gain to increase and results in a reduction in the quality of the image being viewed due to �spangles�, (flashing pin points of light on the image), which is �noise� from the amplification / gain process. Incandescent bulbs in addition to visible light, release most of the energy produced in the NIR and IR spectrum, (heat). NVGs used by a sentry to view an approaching vehicle which has illuminated headlights, will find the NVG �blinded� by the amount of NIR being produced by the headlights, similarly NVG used by a pilot can be �blinded� by cockpit illumination � the AGC can only cope with a limited range of NIR illumination before the goggle is saturated � �blinded�. The image presented to the viewer using NVG is monochromatic � green. The image is 2 dimensional � no perception of depth. This makes operating a vehicle or aircraft using NVGs very difficult, since distance and closing speeds are very difficult to assess. Most of the NVG sold commercially are � at best - Gen II, which is very poor in comparison to the GEN III - restricted technology � currently used by the military. Passive NVG's work like this: light photons will come it (any tiny bit of light, moonlight, starlight), and come into the goggle, and it turned into electrons. then, it hits a very thin charged disc, with millions of channels in it. the electrons hit this, and going through the channels it will release millions more electrons. then, these electrons hit a phosphor screen and they basically spread the very little bit of light all over the phosphor screen so you can see. it is actually manifactured so it turns out green, because the human eye can decipher many different shades of green than any other color.

A cassette tape is based totally off of a magnetic system. The magnet is what reads and writes the information to the tape.

It depends on the software and hard disk. Well there are plenty of cheap video recorders, to choose from to find the cheapest it would be a case of shopping around and looking for the best prices.

You don't. This DVR uses 4-AA batteries. To replace the battries look under the hand-strap for a removable door that slides open towards the bottom of the camera.

Here are a few things you can do with most DVRs: * Record movies and television shows from your cable service. * Pause or fast-forward live TV. * Use the Internet to schedule your DVR to record your favorite television show. This may require the download of additional software onto your PC and/or require you to add your DVR to your home network. * Search your cable listings by actor, time or even director. * Download and share digital photos and music from your computer and DVR. This may require the download of additional software onto your PC and/or require you to add your DVR to your home network.

Yes, using a VHS-C adapter will allow you to record and play VHS-C tapes in a VHS machine. The adapter simply changes the casing format. The actual tape is the same. I'm not sure why you would want to, though. VHS tapes are cheaper and the tapes are longer.

This is going to be tricky. First you need to have a VHS player connected to a TV to be able to record. Next, you will need a graphics card with a video out, or you'll need to buy a PC to TV scan converter. With either one of these, you'll be able to play the movie on your TV while you are recording the VCR. Please note, that playing PC files on your TV will not have the same quality as your monitor, so there will be noticable quality degradation.

This may sound simple, but does it have a timer/alarm feature on it? I had the same problem and it was the timer. It had been accidently set by the kids pushing buttoms. Once we went into the menu and disabled the on/off timer, the problem was solved.

If your TV has a remote control, try replacing the batteries.

When my batteries start to die, the remote sometimes does things on its own (change channels, adjust volume, or turn off).

Being a Electronic Technician, I have seen Sets that have a 1ohm resistor in the circuit that has changed value, and will contribute to this problem..Just one of those things to look for..And probably the most common,if not a remote malfunction. keep remote in another room when going to bed, and make sure the timer isn't set on your tv...if it again turns on by itself, suspect a resistor problem.

The idea for DVD players began in 1994, but were not released on the market until 1996. It is hard to say who the first company to come up with the idea was since several companies released DVD players all at the same time.

No. If a tape is damaged (broken, degraded, dirty, moldy, etc...) it is possible for an experienced professional to repair it. Once a VHS tape is taped over though, the original audio and video is gone. The best you can hope for is to check the very beginning and very end of the tape to see if a couple of frames of the original video are still there.

One can get a DVD and VCR recorder from online retailers like eBay or Amazon. One can also purchase it from retail or electronic stores like Future Shop, Best Buy, Target, Walmart and many more.

If you store high quality movie then it takes about 2GB to store an hour long video, So you can save as much as 16hour of video to your 32 gb flash drive.In case the video quality is lower than you can store double i.e. 32 hours or even more video recording.

A DVR is a Digital Video Recorder. It's like a VCR, but instead of using a tape it records and plays back video digitally. It works like your computer, with a hard drive that stores the information. TiVo is the most popular DVR. It was one of the first on the market. These days there are other competing brands of DVRs, and many cable companies have started offering DVR services. Essentially, they've built a DVR into your cable box and then sell you the ability to use it as an added option (generally for $10 a month or so). The cable-company option requires no hardware since the DVR receiver is integrated with your program menu, so it can be cheaper.

You can do this yourself if you have the right equipment or you can send it to a tape to DVD conversion service.

I recommend using a tape to DVD conversion service. You will get the best quality and it will be the least hassle. -

In principle it's easy, provided that you have (a) an "old" camcorder which can play your Video 8 / Hi 8 tapes/ VHS tapes, and also (b) a digital camcorder which can accept as input the analogue output from the "old" camcorder and produce digital output ("DV Out"). If you do have such equipment, the digital camcorder might either create a digital version of the footage (e.g. a mini DV tape) or it might be able to "pass through" so you can store the digital version straight to a PC or a DVD recorder.

If you put it onto a PC, you can then (optionally) edit it it and then burn a DVD.

I have done this myself using a Canon MV750i camcorder as the "pass through", but unfortunately the camcorder has just broken so I'm looking for another model which has this facility (it's probably cheaper to replace than repair). Does anyone know of a reasonably priced mini DV camcorder which offers this?

If you don't have the digital camcorder described above, you'll need to find a device which does the conversion or alternatively install a video capture card in your PC. Whatever else, you'll obviously have to have something that plays the old tapes (the "old camcorder" referred to above). Plus you need a powerfull enough computer to handle the real time capture of the video.

Play the tape with the VCR connected to a DVD recorder, or a computer with a capture card or dongle attached.

A DVD Recorder that you purchase requires no service.

We tend to take modern technology for granted, as it is all around us. These things need time to develop and be invented.

The reason why the early films were in black and white, is the same reason as there was no sound.

It just hadn't been invented at that time.

At the same time as they hadn't got the technology to add sound to film, they also hadn't got the technology to make films in colour.

Sound came first and then colour.

Video tape recorders have been around since the early sixties, but the first machines were for broadcast studios. The VHS tape standard was invented in 1971 by JVC, and the first home VHS VCR was introduced by JVC in 1976.

This depends on the particular model. Some DVRs have DVD players built in, and some do not.

By itself, a standalone DVR (Digital Video Recorder) without a DVD drive built in cannot play a DVD.
