DVD Recorder to Sky+
Just a quick easy question, have i got this right.
That if i bought a dvd recorder, i connect it to my sky+ box, press record on the dvd recorder, and play the programme i want to record on to the dvd. < is it that simple. Also can you recommend me quite cheap ones as well, i'm not fussed about the quality as long as you can see it. Also i wouldn't mind one that can transfer VHS to DVD as well Also how would that work, would you need it connected to a tv or would you just put in the VHS and click transfer

Yes that's it.
As for recommendations don't ask me, I have had a Sony, Phillips and Panasonic die on me.

Ok, i think this would be the best option since i have an old VHS Combi TV in the bedroom. Thank you everyone ![]() By the way, sorry i couldn't get the quote thingy to work. |

You won't be able to copy commercial videos (macrovision copy-protected). And you won't be able to copy Sky Box Office recordings (again, macrovision copy protection).
But you shouldn't get a message about copy protection when trying to copy anything else (i.e. all other Sky broadcasts, video recordings you have made yourself). |

yeh u can still do that, although i had a bit of bother late last year with copy protection coming up when playing my sky+ and recording from my dvd recorder. Theres a thread elsewhere on this issue that many were having, but i've had no probs since.
