Anybody know what the cheapest STB w/ OTA reception and Firewire is?
I know the Sammy SIR-T165 has it but even used on ebay they are going for 400 (and new for 600 i think). I was reaaaaaallly hoping that the LG 3100A would have it... but alas it does not.
On another note, are there any devices which will translate RGB or DVI to firewire? Or is that just dreaming??
The overall goal that i have is to pipe HDTV feeds to my computer via firewire (or any input really) and then encode them into WM9 (many cool posts on that). I already own a LG 3100A even though it didn't have the Firewire just to fool around with. Maybe there is still some way to record to WM9 even w/ the 3100A???
I'm so pissed that more STB's don't have firewire.... is it too expensive or is this more of a "digital copyrights issue".... ughhhhh
