Won't say which manufacturer but the first bluray demos at CES were actually D-VHS. The BD Players were dummies with lights.
The doors below the players were kept locked for a good reason.
I still have a JVC D-VHS machine that I used to copy material from a cable box. Then to a PC. What a PITA just to get HD videos.
