Hi everyone,<BR>
<BR>
I'm looking for anyway to transfer recorded Tivo content to my<BR>
Macintosh. One possible route I thought of this morning was connecting<BR>
my sony trv-19 handycam to the Tivo via S-video, and record on the<BR>
handycam that way. Looking now on the camera, it say's "s-video out".<BR>
So does this mean I can't input s-video from the Tivo? I vaguely<BR>
remember hearing how the handycam could be used to record content from<BR>
a VCR, so I'm wondering exactly how that occurs... obviously not<BR>
through firewire, or USB. How?<BR>

I DO THIS ALL THE TIME. I find the output of the tivo AND instant replay (I have both) and it works without a hitch. I actually hook it directly to my dvd stand alone recorder. If you do need to record to the mac, you can use the pass through digital converter featured on SOME sony camcorders. I'm not sure which Sony camcorders have this feature, but my digital 8 sony does, as well as the 3 chip sony and the simple one chip.<BR>
<BR>
good luck, works well for me<BR>
