A Standalone Hauppauge HD PVR....

[KVFIVE]

How good would this be...... Hauppauge to make the HD PVR standalone :rolleyes:

onscreen menu driven system.... via your tv.... and just connect an external HDD..... :D

Let's face it.... how many people use the included remote ?
put it to better use and have it control the PVR !

I cant see this being too difficult..... :cool:

I can't believe that I am the only person that this would appeal to ?
:cool:

Then what would you do with the content once it's on your External HDD?

[KVFIVE]

Plug it into a computer a Burn to disc as I do now.....

Yet to be able to record footage without the need of a computer initialy...
just hit record on a remote control..... alot easier dont you agree ?

[Mr X]

I suppose, but given your going then plug it into a computer and then burn it to disc, it kind of seems to defeat the point no, since you need a PC.

Just my opinion. I'll pass your request onto the right people though.

That would be great Thanks :)

Current devices on the market are:

Gefen PVR

CHD PVR80g (Had one of these.... alas, it died)

Good idea :)

Not everyone has their TV & Computer in the same room + most people I know have a USB HDD.

With my situation I would like to record my gameplay on PS3 console which is in the main TV room where my Hauppauge PVR would be, but to get the footage to the PC I have to either:-
1. Connect a Laptop to my PVR
or
2. run 12m of USB cable from PVR to PC which is in my office & have to deal with all the problems associated with detected over that distance!

So yeah I think very good idea :)
