  • Looking For A Real-Time DVD Recorder/Burner?

    Posted by Richard Tarantino on April 10, 2008 at 8:32 pm

    Hi all,

    I work for a small prod. company as an editor doing industrials, corporate media, and docs.

    We recently purchased a MacBookPro and installed Final Cut Studio-2 with all the trimmings included. Anyway, I am looking for a means to burn dvds in real time. In other words is there a divice or burner that I can plug into the laptop via firewire or USB and go directly out from FCP-6.

    This is primarily for doing dvd window burns. i just need to get it done fast.

    If you have any info in regaurds I would be much appreciative. Model, make, brand, id # etc, etc. Anything would help.

    Thanks,

    Richard Tarantino

    Well depending on your needs there are tons of DVD VCR style recorders that will take a video source and record directly to DVD. Check Amazon or the like and you’ll find plenty. They are very popular with movie pirates because they are fast and easy. Some even make decent looking menus.

    Noah,

    Do you know of any particular brands or models that would be good to go with?

    Panasonic is always a safe bet.
