Yep, there's software out there to dump the video files off over a network. I recorded Apollo 13 at high quality and the movie file was 6gb. Pulling that over a network took a LONG time as the ReplayTV's ethernet isn't very fast for some reason. I'm mainly using this replaytv to record and dump tv shows I watch and then I'll burn them to dvd.
How long would you guess a 2 hour movie took to dump onto a PC? ..and how did you record a 6gb file onto a 4.7 gb dvd?
I don't know exactly how long it took, but it took a LONG time. I'm thinking 3 hours or so, but I could be wrong.
I haven't burned a dvd yet, I'm probably going to have to reduce the quality a LOT to get it to fit and that won't be worth it. I'm just going to fire up FCP and see what happens.
