I expect it has something to do with DRM.”

The OP asked if you can record from SKy HD it's very doubtfull if this is possible, only hope is some clever tecchie can convert H264 to mt2s and make it look like a camcorder recording. You can't record from hdmi it's a one way source to display connection enforced by hdcp, and as you say it's to do with drm. HD can be copied if the source outputs analogue HD over a component connection and it's connected to a recorder that can record HD from component.

You can use it as a Blu Ray Player and a Freesat + Receiver plus more.

2 versions of it:

DMR-BS850 - 500GB Storage
DMR-BS750 - 250GB Storage.

Does anyone have one?”

yes, and I am having more than a few problems. One is the programmed recordings dont always work. The indicator flashes in pause mode all though the program. Result = no recording. Its very annoying. Anyone else had this problem?

If the indicator is flashing, that means it's waiting for the start signal, as far as I can work out.
