"Cowboy in residence" That looks strange when you pulled it out Gonk! Just to elaborate, I was not using floral personality trait descriptive terminology, the man really is a Cowboy, This is a ranch (where my horses are) so whenever I throw out mentions about “the place” it always appears to me (in here) as if I’m punning the Outlaw site. But it’s the real thing, last weekend one of the buffalo (used for cutting training) killed one of the 2 border collies ‘Bo” Bo was a tad goofy but what a nightmare glad I was not there to witness. (why I don’t like being out in the buffalo pasture, they are fun to observe (over the fence) but you need to maintain respect at all times towards their nature).

I’m printing your post Gonk thank you. Now I’ll have to get her to round up her camera to see what ‘it’ is. I’m getting sidetracked trying to help with the display research. Which will be my starting point for whatever I get them. I threw a wrench into their purchase, when I asked her what she got and brought up the digital connectivity issues, and she wanted to know what that was all about. As soon as that is all sorted, - I’ll decide which route I’m going (basic Prog DVD and some sort of audio setup for them OR the recordeable). Never looked into PVR-DVD or how they work so your post is invaluable for a starting point. She had assumed if her display had HD on it, - she was good to go for the next 10 yrs. I’m now trying to figure out for them what Mitsy Promise module is all about. Appears you can add it now for 1000. But oddly enough I found last night, - it DOES NOT include a DVI-HDCP upgrade, …just firewire. It’s a bad period to be buying displays right now.
