Digital RV Podcast

One fantastic way to save space is to cut down on bulky items that can be stored in another fashion.  For my clothing I use Eagle Creek travel packs that compress my outfits.  And for my entertainment I copy DVDs to my hard drive, and put the DVDs into storage.

As you’ll see in this episode, copying DVDs is a simple task.  It can become time consuming, but you can always find other things to do while waiting on the copy to complete.

This podcast is a follow up to the information contained at the Digital RV Blog.  Take a look through that article as well as this video if you’re interested in ripping DVDs for viewing when on the road.

Today’s episode covers an item that’s of interest to many readers of the Digital RV.  Playing and recording TV on your PC or Mac.  This episode covers Elgato’s EyeTV, which is designed for Macintosh.  Don’t despair PC users, there are many products available to turn your laptop or desktop into a TV receiver and recorder too.

Often I recomend the Firefox Web Browser. Many folks have wondered why. Beyond being a secure browser, Firefox is loaded with other features. This episode takes you through some of the major features in Firefox.

This podcast covers the Windows version, the Mac version functions the same way with a few minor items. If you’d like to see a Mac tutorial, let me know.

For the first video tutorial we’re starting with something simple. Getting around the new Digital RV Podcast site (http://podcast.digitalrv.net). This one was ready to go for the launch of the site, and now it’s getting posted!

This first tutorial also gives viewers the idea of how the tutorials at this site can work. If you’ve got any ideas for improvements, topics, etc., please let me know via the comment mechanism located with each entry. All requests will be considered, and anything that I can’t address I’ll let you know about.

Hope you enjoy the first tutorial.

For the first video podcast here, I decided to tell you a little more about what to expect in future podcasts. Also, a quick demonstration of the types of “tutorials” is also shown. Hope you enjoy it.

The majority of podcasts at this site will not be IPod friendly. They will be ITunes friendly though. What does that mean? I’ll be sizing the podcasts larger in order to make the tutorials usable for viewers. A small screen presentation of how to do something on a computer screen won’t get you very far!
