Imagine having instant access to all your video anywhere! With its ability to easily record from any analog video source onto standard memory cards, the Neuros MPEG4 Recorder 2 is the must-have companion for PSP’s, iPod’s and other portable media players.
With the Recorder 2 you can record the media you already own onto your handhelds to liven up your commute, make a cross-country business trip seem a little less lonely, or just watch your favorite movie or TV show in bed without disturbing your sleeping spouse.

Here’s how it works. Just pop a CF or memory stick memory card (purchased separately) into the Recorder 2 and plug it into the video-out jacks of any video source (cable or Satellite TV box, DVR, PVR like Tivo™, VCR, DVD player, camcorder, etc) with the supplied cables and hit ‘Record.’ Once the recording is finished, you can instantly view the recorded video on a PSP , your laptop or other handheld that accepts CF or memory stick by popping the memory card out of the Recorder 2, popping it into the player, and hitting ‘Play’.

It’s easy to watch on an iPod too: Just transfer the recorded file to your PC via a USB card reader (purchased separately) and add it to iTunes, then sync your iPod, and you are ready to go. Nothing to download or convert.

Neuros is all about openness and freedom and, unlike the big guys, uses open standards to make sure your content plays without hassle on as many products as possible.

3 of 5 some problems Thursday, July 17, 2008
A Customer from New York, NY  

The main problem I've had with this is the cable connection- using the cables provided, while recording the image tends to flicker because the cable that goes in to the Neuros is not tight. Maybe it's just the unit I received. The other problem is that I've not figured out how to create a recording that breaks up the movie into chapters. That would've been a nice feature. Otherwise the Neuros does what it promises to- records video into various formats onto a memory card (2 GB Compact Flash seems to be the max capacity & preferred memory).

5 of 5 Excellent Product Tuesday, August 01, 2006
Darren from Toronto Canada  
It has been a year since I bought my first one, now I have bought several. This little recorder is an excellent purchase. I have used it for my son's PSP, my daughter has used it on her cellphone. The company who makes it, Neuros has the best support I have seen in a very long time. They have open forums where users can post questions, likes, dislikes, etc. Even other users help with support. I highly recommend this product.
