Television programs, unfortunately, never air according to our schedules. As people we tend to get very busy and we find ourselves wanting to relax in front of the television because it is relatively cheap, safe and we do not have to go anywhere to see it--just to the comfort of our own living room or television. With the invention of the VCR and now, subsequently, the DVR we can save our much loved television shows and movies directly to the hard drive that is included inside the DirecTV receiver. The bad side to this technology is not being able to take it with us. We are paying to watch the shows which gives us limited ownership to them so now we an add a DVD recorder to the rest of our video equipment so that we can record from the DVR to the DVD recorder. Read on to learn connect DirecTV HD DVR to a DVD recorder.
