How Do I Hookup A DVD Recorder with Directv ?
I'm looking to get a dvd recorder to record tv shows from Directv and to copy camcorder tapes to dvd.
I'm probably going to hook up the dvd recorder on my basement tv only because it's the only tv that doesn't have a dvd player hooked up to it and it has the easiest access.
The only thing hooked up to the tv is XBOX.
What kind of cables do I need and how to I hook up the cables so I can record from Directv ?
Thanks.
