    Hi bought a HP7470 with media center to update my home built system. I need to know if there is some way of moving to dvd the tv shows I record. the way the system makes me do it now is soooo slow takes about 50 minutes to record a 1 hour show to dvd from the hard drive. When I make a backup copy of my dvds it takes a third of that time. I use the original xcopy or 1 click dvd copy to do this. I can not seem to find any info on the web to help me speed the copying process when using media center. and help or direction??

    i wanted to do the same thing a few weeks ago so i got to doing some research and found a plugin for media center called AutoDVRconvertv1.3
    it is kinda complicated to install correctly. it does convert the DVR-MS
    files to mpeg (or other formats) very fast. i did my wifes country music video awards show some 2 1\2 hours in about ten minutes. and i edit with ulead dvd movie factory. worked out great. it even has like an automated
    commercial removal thing. i haven't used it yet. just google it, you should come up with the media center plugin site.
