how to transfer dvr to dvd?

shellim4 · 05-16-2008, 04:13 PM

Can anyone tell me how to transfer shows from my dvr to a dvd or vhs tape (preferably dvd)? Can I hook up a dvd recorder to the front input jacks on the cable box? And do I have to have the show playing to transfer it to the dvd?
TIA.

you can probably use a capture card for your computer and then burn a dvd from there, but those are expensive.
