Joseph,

Yes, there are quite a few devices with which to do this.  I have a Sony
computer which came with Sony's Gigapocket software.  With this piece of
software, I can set my timer to record certain news shows.  I can then watch
them (and skip the commercials) when I want to.  I can also take segments of
the shows and convert them to mpeg-1 or mpeg-2 and put the files on any
computer at work to show my class.

It is ***much*** better than recording onto a VHS tape and digitizing later.

I have browsed through Circuit City and seen other hardware that can do
this.

Best,

Hello.  We have some instructors who record off air broadcasts to VHS for
use in class.  I am looking for a way to capture these broadcasts
directly to a HD (e.g. Tivo?) I want to avoid having to digitize the stuff
from VHS.  Does anyone have suggestions for how to do this?  Joseph
