You can't record, then start playing back while still recording with screen capture software. The only thing I know that does this...professionally...is...is...crap. What is that software? They use it on the Tour de France and Wimbleton...

A Tivo is a carefully manufactured embedded computer system with a lot of complex parts that have to work perfectly together. It's basically impossible to emulate all that in software alone. To the extent that it can be done it all, it's not reliable. And in order to make it reliable, it requires a level of complexity that makes it ludicrously impractical compared to just buying a box to do it.
The Daily Show runs entirely on a rack of off-the-shelf Tivos, recording live TV for later playback and dubbing to Beta SP. Simplicity is a virtue.
Since you're sliding in and out of "real" TIVO land, my "TV" is a Mac mini.
[www.kozco.com] I "TIVO" (to coin a verb) all day long. I can edit and export, too. This device has inputs other than the roof antenna. No idea if this is any help at all. Koz
WHOA. Hold up.
No Tivo, either a Series 2 or TivoHD, has input connectors other than a coax port. And TivoHDs only work if you have installed cable cards; they won't even advance to the next screen until it's configured to a cable signal. I'm not even sure there's a way to smash record on any Tivo without identifying the recording as coming from a TV channel. What's wrong with recording the live feed directly into FCP (with Capture Now and non-controllable device) and then just playing back the captured clip a couple minutes later? You'd have adequate time to pick your in and out points and render some cross dissolves, then just play back from your timeline directly into your switcher or projector.
