I have not yet tried this but have recorded from the satellite, I am sure it would not be a problem.

Yes. Amazon Instant, Netflix, Redbox Instant and VUDU - But not Hulu Plus. That was the big downside for me.

Yes you can. The USB interface works quite well. I've tried AVI and MP4 files without issue.

it has StreamTV support which is basically like a linux computer with apps like Roku on board... Vudu, who is a Netflix competitor supports the apps... they are pretty good and include twitter facebook etc. Vudu is a no subscription, $2 rental service, which for most people makes it more expensive than Netflix, but it's very premium.... it has very wide support of hot cable series like californication True Blood etc (Amazon is almost as good and Netflix is way far behind on this)..... also Vudu doesn't have a 30 day restriction on new releases like Amazon and Netflix, so anything that comes out on DVD Blu ray is available the day of release.... also if it is available on bluray, then Vudu has itin 1080 which blows away Netflix and Amazon who selectively offer HD content... Netflix is cheap, but it's really not that great.... Amazon Prime is sorta free but is really lacking in HD.... Vudu is premium but will end up costing you if you watch a lot.... My bet is Mitsu will make it an open platform at some point and you will be able to get anything

It has Amazon VOD. The player didn't originally have it, which might be why the specs don't mention it. But, don't worry. The latest software update for the player includes it.

You cannot. No app has been written to support Amazon instant video. This model is at least 5 years old.

Well lets not go saying it's IMPOSSIBLE to record amazon streaming services... because it is possible.One way to do it is to purchase software which allows you to record anything on your monitor. just google screen capture software. I'm using snagit.

Hello L. Lyons. Unfortunately this Blu-Ray Player (the VBR220) doesn't support Amazon Instant Video. So far as I can tell it only supports Netflix and Vudu.

I would think yoiu could if you send the vedio to your computer. I would also check with Redio Shack to see if they make adapter that you could record from a DVD player. I have not tried this yet. I hope this helps.

I am not sure if amazon video is compatible. There are many apps to choose from to stream video. I use Netflix. The picture quality is at least as good as DVD when streaming. However, I find that Netflix has a lot of issues. I will need to sign back in, it will not load and then at least every 3 months you have to update the Blu-ray player. Other streaming Blu-ray players seem to have the same issues.If you are going to mainly stream video, I would recommend buying something else. This is fine for occasional use but can cause many headaches.

Hi Dan, Let me try and address each of your questions separately. Question 1: This camcorder has the capability of recording either SD or HD. If its recorded in HD, you can transfer it to varous PC software packages in HD and down convert to SD for burning to DVD. Sony Vegas Movie Studio + DVD, Pinacle Studio Plus 10.5 and Ulead DVD Movie Factory can handle HD and create standard DVDs. No known software products for HD DVD and Blu Ray. Question 2: If you want to record in HD and output to a standard Mini-DV tape in SD format, you should look into one of the software products above to do that for you. I don't know if a firewire connection will work. Question 3: Yes. See the list of software products above. Please note that the software listed does not include professional grade software costing $400 and up. Additional software packages in this price range can handle HD editing. Also note, if you are looking into software for HD, check the system requirements of the software against your PC to see if you have enough horsepower to use it before buying.

No, it doesn't work with the Amazon App...also doesn't work with Vudu anymore. It does work with iTunes. Can't speak for other apps...I don't use Hulu Plus or Netflix.

We use Amazon video, Hulu, M-Go, and VuDu on a regular basis over wifi and have no problems at all. VuDu and M-Go are even in 1080 resolution. In fact I'm watching Hulu right now. There are other video services like Netflix, Crackle, YouTube, etc. too but we don't use them as often.

Through a bluray player such as the PlayStation 3, you can view HD Amazon movies. However, the quality is directly dependent on your internet connection and you most likely will not get bluray quality video or audio.

Netflix, Pandora and Cinema Now are the only online options. It also appears that there will be no new updates to the firmware after the addition of Cinema Now (January 2011). If you don't have that update it is available here: http://www.insigniaproducts.com/products/blu-ray-dvd-players-recorders/NS-WBRDVD.html

Yes you can, with a little work. Go to AVSforum and search the DVR+ thread for their testing of a program called "ffmpeg" which converts the original file to a useable format.
