What is a good digital video recorder ? Something with a good zoom for the ET board lol. I just don’t know what to buy. I want something decent, easy to use and download. Also, what program to get so I can make DVD’s to play them on a regular DVD player. Thanks ❌ ---

Unless something has changed, you’ll need to shrink it using DVD Shrink once it has been ripped by Decryptor. A huge PITA but still worth while. ---
