Sorry, I don't know that answer. I'd contact the company directly on this one. Good luck.

I don't know about the movie files you see in the EyeTV application window, but if you export them to iTunes or a smart device, they become independent of EyeTV.

I have a Mac. I record programs, edit out commercials and export the edited program to my Documents and iTunes. If you do that, they should be preserved even if you trash eyetv. That is my GUESS.

Native EyeTV files are MPEG2. The software can transcode the files to MP4 for iTunes or other video programs.

No you shouldn't as it records them as separate mp4 files (I think it's mp4). You tell it where to store the files so you can back them up if preferred.

That would be a matter of personal choice, but since the DVR overwrites the oldest file first when the card gets full, you could leave it on. You never know when something will happen that would make you wish you had left the cam on.

If you have a Digital Video Recorder to store the images, and that recorder is off site or somehow made safe, then you have the images. Each camera feeds a steady stream of video, but it is stored nowhere, unless you make provision to store it.Note that to store even 5 frames a second takes an awful lot of disk space.

yes. by default it will rewrite over the old videos automatically or you can hook it up to your computer or laptop and delete what you do not want from the sd card.

I use Audials MovieBox 10 to record from DVDs and streaming video and then store on my hard drive to watch on my PLEX server. I can say that the videos I have recorded, from what ever source (streaming video or DVDs), had no noticeable video degradation.

yes, but some programs are blocked / protected. A blue screen will appear saying some thing indicating the program is protected. All of my recordings are from movies that I have saved on my DVR. Most will record but some will not. Strange, but some times the blocked programs still record even though I get the waring display. If a warning display appears don't give up. Try "write to disc" anyway. you have nothing to loose. I have a ton of DVR recordings. This DVD recorder was well worth it to me. I only wished I purchased a VCR / DVD recorder to make it easier to record that old box of VCR home movies I have.

I suggest you contact Amazon right away! Inform them of your problem & they should refund your full purchase. They did for me & told me to just keep the product or throw it out.If you still want to convert your old videos, I'd suggest checking the Honestech VHS to DVD package. I eventually went with it from Amazon. Unfortunately you just missed a Gold Box deal a few days ago, but it's the best & easiest to use that I could find. Even at regular price it;s still a good deal. Good Luck & repost when you succeed. Mike

JUST DON't I bought one and it worked swell for about 3 months. Then it kept ejecting my VCR. My remedy, from the supplier, was to take it and get it repaired, that it was probably dust in the machine. I have had many, many recorders and VCRs and with proper care they last forever. No, they would not replace it. So........I'd say watch it!!

If you bought a VHS tape that is degrading and want to save it via DVD ( whatever R ) you will need a hardware device called a color corrector . Not only will it fix the color, remove artifacts, and repair -- without a PC -- video, it will not be effected by copy-right junk ... I believe it would be legal for one archive copy ... due to loss of the original media ... since you are paying for the video and it is not your fault the media is degrading.YOU NEED A COLOR CORRECTOR , Y E S .

The old files erase and the camera keeps recording without any input from you. Things to note get a trusted 32 gig card and format it in the camera and if you want to keep a event manually lock that video file so the camera does not erase it. If your vehicle bounces around like my semi truck turn off the G sensor option or you will have a lot of locked video files

I used Windows Explorer and called up the Eyenimal and clicked on it. The videos on the Eyenimal showed and I deleted them. I would contact their customer support if you are having problems.

The short answer is YES. The more elaborate answer lies in the details. Here is what Silicon Dust says: "Elgato EyeTV + HDHomeRun brings HD television to the Mac. Fully featured high-definition DVR from every Mac in your home. Elgato's EyeTV software not provided by SiliconDust". So you need MAC software, EyeTV. Otherwise, you need software that is fully DLNA compliant. I repeat, FULLY DLNA COMPLIANT!

I have not seen a way to do that but the system overwrites the oldest video when the hard drive runs out of space. Ao in that respect you don't have to worry about it.

Yes you can. This camera records in two formats. .MOV is easier to import but not 100% full-HD. The other format, you have to download a specific player. Do a little research on google and you will get a lot of good tips online. Thanks.

Not sure, it would depend on the format you are using to record on. If you are programing a disc you can watch a VHS tape in the meantime. I think you would need to switch it back to DVD format (mode) once you are done watching the tape. If you are going to watch a program while the DVR670 is programed you'll have to watch through the rabbit ears or the dish while the program is being recorded. This is what I do. All recorded programs are through the dish onto the DVR670

Yes - you delete them just like any other files (you must connect the camera to your PC). You can also copy them, email them, etc.But the files are big, so you almost have to delete them to be able to film more.

I do not subscribe to this BUT it really is better to have the recordings saved to a home computer using their DVR package that comes with it. You can have it overwrite the files after 24 hours so that space does not run out.
