mp4

HI, MY DAUGHTER HAS ASKED FOR AN MP4 PLAYER FOR XMAS, SHE CHOSE THE ONE SHE WANTED, A MINISTRY OF SOUND THAT APPARANTLY RECORDS ANYTHING STRAIGHT FROM THE TV, A FEATURE THAT IS A PRIORITY FOR HER.  ANYWAY I COME ACROSS AN MP4 PLAYER THAT WAS A THIRD OF THE PRICE AT COMPUTER SUPERMARKET.COM.  IT SAYS YOU CAN RECORD FROM THE TV VIA AN CONVERSION KIT, WHEN I ENQUIRED ABOUT IT THE GUY SAID YOU CANNOT RECORD STRAIGHT FROM TV BUT VIA THE PC VIA A TV PRAX?  CAN ANYONE ENLIGHTEN ME, AS IVE BOUGHT THE CHEAPER MP4 FOR MY DAUGHTER BUT WORRIED THAT IT MIGHT BE TOO TECHNICAL FOR HER TO RECORD TV ON TO IT.  IM NOT VERY UP ON TECHNOLOGY BUT SOMEONE ELSE SAID THAT IF I GET A "DONGLE" I CAN ACCESS DIGITAL TV ONTO MY PC THEN DOWNLOAD PROGRAMMES/MUSIC/VIDEOS ONTO THE MP4. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME THE EASIEST WAY OF DOING THIS I DONT WANT MY DAUGHTER BEING DISSAPOINTED AS RECORDING FROM TV IS THE MAIN FEATURE SHE WANTED.
