Comcast digital cable box motorolla DCT3412  used fire wire port.  IT will not work because I do not have the software...where do I find the software?\nI was hoping to save and then transfer shows to my computer.  I want to save them then burn onto DVDs instead of downloading from bitlord and going to jail....

You would need a break out box. I think IOMEGA makes these boxes so that you can input video into your PC. It may be cheaper to find a local comany that transfers video to DVD.

Ouch.  Time to hit Ebay, if your old modem only had USB on the LAN side....  Fortunately lots of people sell DSL modems for not too much.  Try to use the same brand as your old one, just get a model  that has Ethernet output (so if your old modem was a Westell, get another one)

I am not the best at this stuff but look at sites giving multiregional hacks or codes.I did my Philips DVP3500 and it worked great. Get the free ones, some people try to charge. Just put in make and model of DVD followed by "hack" or "multinational code"Good luck.

dvdshrink has worked perfectly for me for years.  You jsut need to have the software that came with your dvd burner to actually put it onto a disk - dvd shrink will convert the files and save them on to your hard drive (unless you have nero, then it will burn it automagically)

Connecting a digital cable box is pretty much the same no matter the model:\n\nTake the coaxial cable coming out of your floor/wall and connect it to the "cable in" on the back of the box.\nWith another piece of coax, connect "cable out" on the back of your cable box to the "in" (rf in, cable in, etc) on your VCR.\nConnect the "out" on your VCR to the "in" on your TV, and that's it!\n\nObviously, if you have no VCR, then simply connect the "out" on the cable box to the "in" on your TV.\n\nIf you are looking to do a more advanced connection, see the owner's manual below.

these answers that suggest of using a USB to USB Datalink Cable are in principle correct but it doesn't work because you can neither share the folders nor install the communication program on the PC for this Link Cable. did you ever try to do this blindly? .. :p\nso it might be the better solution to hook the TV set to the PC using a S-video cable, provided that the PC has an S-video output and the TV set has the corresponding input.

You need to import the video then write the DVDs.  Having an interface like Dazzle gives you the ability to import video,  Having something like Nero allows you to handle the rest.

Are you talking about the channel to view watch your dvd player on your TV? Or are you talking about Region Code?\n\nMost DVD players don't have a co-ax cable anymore. It's usually a RCA or S-Video output. You set your TV to video and boom, you've got video.

What software are you using. Adobe softwares have problem showing up Capture Devices that aren't on there list. By the way, what kind of camcorder are you using. If it supports firewire use it. It works better and you get better image quality.

make sure your jumpers, the match the cable configuration.  I would make the burner jumpers set to cable select and the DVD to slave.. Make sure the plug has the DVD connected to the slave end and the burner to the master end.  If this doesn't work then post this question on sharkyforums.com.  They will help you out.

You can use software like Nero to burn DVDs if you mean burning the data file (such as a *.mpeg or *.avi movie file you have made with a digital camera or webcam), and then you can play that movie/data file on other computers with DVD drives.  To be able to play one of these video files on a DVD player, however, depends on your particular model.  Most will play an *.mpeg4 format.  But it won't look like a commercial DVD, with menus, etc.\n\nIf you want to create a DVD that will play on all DVD players and have custom menus and other digital content, you should start with whatever version of Nero that came with your DVD-RW drive, go to the Nero website and update it to the current version.  I use Nero Vision Express 3 SE.\n\nJust one catch:  you have to purchase the video plug-in for about $10 for the software to encode it in the format used for commercial DVDs (NTSC for U.S. or PAL format for Europe).  But it is worth the price in my opinion.  You can create your own menus, and it has a window with a picture of a remote control.  You punch the buttons on it, and it will show you how the navigation through the menu will work when you use the remote control of your DVD player.  You can make really professional looking DVDs of your home movies, etc., with this software.  But when you create the DVD, remember that it has to encode it while burning it, so (unlike directly copying a file) it will take practically half the length of the movie itself to make the DVD (so it might take 10 or 15 minutes to make a DVD of a 30 minute movie).\n\nSome people want to make copies of commercial DVDs like movies they have purchased, to have a backup in case their original version gets damaged.  You can't make direct copies of commercial DVDs with the Nero software.  DVD copying software to make exact copies is available at stores like CompUSA:\nhttp://www.compusa.com/products/products.asp?N=200163&Ntt=dvd%20copy&Ntk=All&Nty=1&D=dvd%20copy&Dx=mode%20matchall\nI haven't tried any of them, but it looks like they have one version for $5, so it's worth a try.  The typical price is about $40.  These are supposed to make an identical clone of the DVD you are copying, with menus and all the special features.\n\nThere have been lawsuits trying to stop the sale of DVD copying software, but for now it is available.  If you use the software for anything other than making a backup of a movie you own, then you are probably violating copyright laws.

There are a wack of programs that will do this for you.  The new Nero 7 Ultra, DVDSanta, DVD Recode are among a few.  These work flawless and I use them almost every day converting clients stuff.

Open DVD Decrypter and go to the Options Menu.\nUnder I/O try checking a box for ignoring I/O read errors.  This may solve your problem.  If not, the copy protection on the DVD is probably a new type and has not been"worked-around" by programmers yet.\n\nAlso try lowering the burning speed to 1-2x lower than the highest available.\n\nie: 16x -- lower it to 8x\nie: 8x -- lower it to 4x.
