LG HR599D Twin HD Recorder / Blu-ray Disc Combo

The LG HR599D is a high-definition HDD recorder with a 500GB hard drive, twin digital HD television tuners and the ability to play Blu-ray discs. The HR599D Twin HD Recorder / Blu-ray Disc Combo also comes with integrated Wi-Fi (802.11n) and a front-mounted USB port with DivX support. In other words, it provides the functionality of a PVR, a Blu-ray player and a media streamer -- all in one sleek looking device.

The LG HR599D is one of the most feature-packed HDD recorders on the market, but it also has a price tag to match. With an RRP of $1379, it is significantly more expensive than most of its competitors, including the Sony RDR-HDC500 and Panasonic DMR-XW350 . It also lacks inbuilt editing tools and Audio/Video inputs; two pretty serious omissions.

On the plus side, we found the LG HR599D to be a lot more user-friendly than the typical HDD recorder, courtesy of a helpful manual and intuitive menu interface. The inclusion of a Blu-ray drive is also bound to please — particularly by those who have yet to make the leap to HD.

My mini dv Panasonic camcorder doesn't have memory card, will usb cable extract pictures from a mini dv tape?


Can you use the USB cable to transfer images?

Video, no. You need to use FireWire (aka iLink aka IEEE1394).

Still pictures, YES! That's what the USB is used for on a miniDV camcorder!

-------------------
Your next question might be "Why?"
Answer: Here's some ancient digital video history...
When mini-DV (and Digital-8) digital video camcorders first came out, the USB revision in use was 1.1, which did not have the speed for DV-format video bit rates (for webcams, yes. DV, no). So at that time it became established as a standard that the USB port on a DV camcorder only carried still picture files, not video. The IEEE1394 aka FireWire aka iLink port was allowed to carry video and still pictures, but USB carried only stills.
Then USB 2.0 came out, which has more than enough speed necessary to transfer DV format video -- but the old standard had been firmly entrenched, and digital video is still only available on the FireWire port from a miniDV camcorder.
