Archiving Tivo / DVR to DVD (1 Viewer)

[Jon_Are]

Soon I will be getting a stand-alone DVD player/recorder.

Coincidentally, my Tivo just crapped out and I'm faced with a choice between another Tivo unit and my cable company's DVR.

My question: Which of these two choices, if any, allow archiving of recorded television programs to DVD using the DVD recorder?

Also, how straightforward is the process?

Thanks,

Jon

Connect the DVR to the DVD recorder with S-video and analog audio. Play the program and hit record on the DVD recorder. Tivo will give you an addition option of sending the program to your PC over your home's computer network and allowing you to burn it on a computer DVD recorder.
