[FrankLog] http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051115/tv_nm/tivo_dc">TiVo brand appears to be losing it's luster, at least among users who have commented on Digital Video Recorders on any of 80,000 web sites and discussion groups on the topic. The beneficiaries of this change of attitude seem to be Dual-Tuner and High Definition DVRs such as Motorola's DCT-6412, distributed through Comcast and other cable providers.

Your TV - connecting audiovisual (AV) equipment
[Archived in Entry]
[A Consuming Experience] Sockets on boxes or your TV will often be labelled AV1, AV2 etc (sometimes the labelling is annoying not shown on the box or TV, but it should be clear from the manual which socket of a particular box is considered "AV1" and which is "AV2" etc). The labelling AV1, Av2 etc is just a way to distinguish between different sockets on the same box - it can be other types of sockets too, not just scart sockets, which are labelled AV something.
