Downloading from a SKY+ box Posted: Fri September 19, 2008 10:38 AM UTC I've recently bought a SKY+ box. Using this I can record programmes and play them back at any time just like a DVD/VCR, fine so far. I've recorded some shows and want to transfer them to a DVD via my laptop. There is a facility to copy shows to my VCR/DVD. My problem is I only have a VCR, and want them on DVD. There are USB ports on the SKY+ box. Can I use them to transfer shows? Plugging in a USB to USB only gets my laptop to ask for the correct software. If not, why are the USB ports there? Report Advertising or Inappropriate Posting	stewarth99	1 reply [Reply]
