Hi,
first off I love the forums, esp the DRM topics

Now..I dont know if this is the right forum, but...Is there any way to record a HD stream from a cable/satellite source?

Pretty much...Can you record a HD signal from component video signals or HDMI?

I know HDMI is probably out of the question b/c of encryption, but is there any tool to record HD using component?

I found this, does anyone know anything about it?

It HAS to be possible, i mean there are rips of HD movies and shows from cable channnels online.

Thanks

HDTV can currently be digitally recorded by the following ways:

• HDTV Tuner PC Card
• Firewire Source to Windows XP PC
• Firewire Source to Apple Mac
• USB Source to PC
• HDTV DVR, PVR like TiVo, Hauppauge HD PVR
• D-VHS

....from four potential sources:

• Cable DTV
• Digital Television (DTV)
• Direct Broadcast Satellite DTV (DBS)
• C/Ku Band Satellite DTV

Thanks, I guess the Hauppage HD-PVR is the only thing that can do what I want it to. Too bad its $250.
