Abstract
A system and method for direct digital recording of input media such as audio, video, and/or images for easy access and editing are disclosed. The direct digital recording system generally comprises a physical layer configured to receive input media data comprising asynchronous (ASYN) and/or isochronous (ISOC) transactions from an input media capture device, a link layer configured to receive ASYN transactions and convert the received ASYN transactions to a computer readable file system format, a logics chip configured to receive and transmit ASYN and ISOC transactions from and to the physical layer and to receive and transmit ASYN transactions from and to the link layer, the logics chip being configured to convert the ISOC transactions received from the physical layer to ASYN transactions and to selectively convert any portion of the ASYN transactions received from the link layer to ISOC transactions, and a storage having a storage media for storing the data in the computer readable file system format data transmitted from the link layer.
