Yes. Connect your DVR/TiVo to the Neuros OSD with the included RCA cable (red, white and yellow), and play the content you wish to remove from your hard drive. Hit record on the Neuros OSD remote control, and the OSD will convert the file played from your DVR into a standard digital MP4 file that will be saved on a storage device of your choice.

The Neuros OSD records in the standard and open MP4 format compatible with a wide range of devices. Videos recorded with the Neuros OSD can not only be played a TV set using the OSD as a player, but can also be viewed on PC/Laptops and popular PMPs like the iPod/Nano/iPhone, the PSP, smartphones etc...

For the highest setting, 1 hour of video is about 1GB. It means that even on the highest setting, you could have a video library with all your favorite content on a single hard drive.

No, the OSD has no internal storage, but you can plug in any USB external hard drive (with the FAT 32 format), use standard flash cards or networked storage devices (NAS, PC, etc...).

We have tested up to 8GB in size for memory cards with the OSD with working results. Using the OSD's USB connection, you can hook up external hard drives and expand your space to almost unlimited levels. SDHC cards are compatible with the OSD when using an adapter.

With the iPod, your mileage may vary. Apple has changed the way the iPod interacts with its USB port. As a result, there is a risk that your iPod will be formatted if you plug your iPod directly into the USB port. We recommend you record your video to a USB storage device, CF card or SD card, and then import your files into iTunes. Or, if your OSD is connected to your home computer via a network, you can do this automatically. See the Neuros Forums for more details.

The OSD accepts SD memory cards, MMC memory cards, MS (Pro and Pro Duo) memory cards, CF memory cards, and microdrives. This includes all mini/micro variants of the previously mentioned cards assuming you have the proper adapters. The OSD is compatible with the newer SDHC cards, if you use an adapter.

You can record to micro drives, USB thumb drives, external hard drives, to the PSP, iPod video (among many USB storage/portable media devices) and PCs (network required).

You will be able to play only DRM-free songs. This excludes most songs purchased through iTunes, but includes most songs purchased through DRM-free sites, such as Amazon Unbox.
