... Otherwise, you can get the Hauppauge.

To quote Tony Stark: "Is it too much to ask for both?" :)

Can the Colossus handle all the audio encodings? I don't exactly know what all is. I see it supports DD5.1. But what about TrueHD or DTS or DTS-HD or anything-else, recordable from everywhere-else? Or is that to much to ask for now?

Anyway, it looks great as a fast & simple hi-def digital VCR.

I can also see the 1080p30/24 ones more useful for in-computer captures (video games, et al) -- although more complicated due to the separate audio recording and subsequent syncing / remuxing.
