• I have no intention of starting a "my Toy Is Better Than Your Toy" debate, you were talking about one machine and I'm talking about another, simple as that. Quite correct. • To be hoenst, I'm not sure about the editing functionality of the "Strong" recorder but whether it edits or whether it doesn't is of little concern to me. Again it was just Gordon's personal opinion he was expressing and as you said yourself you're both talking about different machines and probably you have different needs. • I have a package on my Windows computer called Video Redo TV Suite which I use to edit video with as best as anyone can without sight <smile>. Video Redo is quite a good product; we use it here now and then. But usually that's only used for editing camcorder video. It' way too much hassle to mess around transferring TV material on to a computer just to edit it. :) • This software has a facility to remove ads or scenes though I've never quite worked out how to use the facility. On the occasions I've tried that it's not nearly as accurate as it could be. But I'm told that's due to the fact that a certain signal is transmitted on the video line in the US which doesn't exist elsewhere. Video Redo is supposed to rely on that signal block to have its ad removal tool work. • So if I want to edit video - sometimes I do - or copy to DVD and create a project - I've done that before with DVD Redo - then its a simple matter of copying the video files over the network from the "Strong" machine to the computer and working on them there. That's something we can't do with ours. The only way is to dump it to DVD as a DVD and then re-export it. That's why I say it's too much hassle. • I remember you telling me about the Sony quite some time ago, I have a video recorder here wich seems to have similar editing functions to the Sony and I've mentioned it from time-to-time, its a Panasonic though its different from the Sony in many ways, it records to DVD-RAM rather than a hard drive and so on. The Sony doesn't handle DVDRAM so yes, probably right. • I don't use that thing any longer as its NOT HDMI compatible and is not compatible with our latest TV digital system which is a shame but there we are. Our Sony DVD recorder is going the journey for the same reason. It's only analogue. Not the HD recorder, Gordon bought a DVD recorder about 12 years ago and it doesn't work properly now anyway.
