Connect Your HDTV With A Blu-Ray DVD And A HD-DVR

By Lewis Arbour

The HDTV technological science is so unbelievable as it has give movies and Television shows a brand fresh visual aspect. But, there is still one small problem: much of the stuff that's on TV is still terrible! With most shows pushing you to switch off your set, which can be the same no matter of whether you are watching a high def or a general def TV, this is the time you ought to think about DVRs.

A DVR is a digital video recorder, and is also known as a personal video recorder, or PVR whose basic function is the same as an old VCR, to record content from broadcast Television. The DVR however is not just another Video Cassette Recorder as it is able to give you much more in terms of making TV watching a smarter experience, where you do not have to sit through nonsense. Plus it is always recording what you are viewing, so you'll be able to pause a live broadcast as if it were a recording, then come back to it later without missing a thing.

Though regular models are in use from 1999, the later and newer models are ready to handle high def materials. A modern HD-DVR (High-Definition DVR) has a hard disc drive bigger than the one in your desktop PC and uses it to store up to 35 hours of HD content, or three hundred hours of general content. of course the fresh models have improved in other areas, too - for example the TiVo Series 3, for instance, can up scale general definition content to give it better quality, and can record 2 channels simultaneously while you watch a third.

A quick way to get a HD-DVR is to take one on hire or lease from the cable company by paying only - per month, but most users feel that the memory is not enough which ranges between 8 to 10 hours of HD content and the hardware they receive is not very comfortable to use. The most feasible answer to this problem is to buy a TiVo Series 3 HD-DVR, which right now costs about six hundred dollars but you would be amazed at its quality of transmission, storage capacity and comfort of use.

The positive effects of utilising this type of recording device are large. This device can be programed to record all the shows where you have a special pursuit even if you do not know that these are broadcast - for instance, program your TiVo to record all movies starring Clint Eastwood whenever it is shown on any channel. You are relieved of scanning through the channels for endless hours and naturally you can watch TV without the empty commercial messages, which saves so much of your time.

The affect is so great that nearly 70% of television promoters confirmed in a recent study that with DVR invasion of the market, the thirty second spots would become defunct. Even a quarter of promoters are seriously contemplating replacing their TV publicising expenses with some other promotional route. When you connect your HDTV with a Blu-Ray DVD and a HD-DVR, you can finally say au revoir to the annoying Television commercials. - 29890
