Will the dvd recorder - vcr combo have to be HDTV compatable?
I'm considering purchasing the dvd recorder - vcr player and need help in selecting an easy to operate system. Also, will it be obsolete in 2009 when all TV's will be HDTV? Can CD-RW be used as a DVD disc?
First of all, not all TVs will be HDTV. On February 17th, 2009, TV stations will stop broadcasting in analog signal and start broadcasting in digital. You will now receive digital television (DTV). The only people this will affect are people who are using an antennae to receive their signal. If you receive cable or satellite, they will be allowed to continue broadcasting in analog signal until at least 2012. If they choose to do otherwise, they must let you know.
Secondly, DTV does NOT mean HDTV. HDTV is the best quality of DTV. There are two other levels - SDTV and EDTV. After Feb 17th, 2009, all new TV's must be equipped with a digital tuner. Most new TVs now already have digital tuners in them; and most new TVs are HDTV compatible, but you must pay extra through your provider for HDTV service.
Thirdly, with most major studies switching over to Blu-Ray format, you're better off buying a BluRay player, and not DVD. If you're looking to record TV shows, get a TiVo.
Finally, no, CD-RWs cannot be used as a DVD disc. It is a different format. Your DVD recorder will be able to read a CD-RW, but it will most likely not be able to burn to it.
