Both the answers above are correct at this time, but there is anoter option. If you want to transfer the shows/movies to a DVD then you will need to connect the DVR to a PC that has a TV capture card like I have shown ended bids for from Ebay. first is a link to a Desktop style TV TUNER CAPTURE CARD. Second is a Laptop PCMCIA TV TUNER CAPTURE CARD. With either of these you can record onto the PC and ten use the software to edit and burn the shows/movies to DVD.

In thefuture (Possibly) your DVR which has USB ports can be connected to a Home Computers Network so you can transfer the shows/movies to your PC quicker.

To add the next Steps to Norms response. You have to play the program from your DVR and hit the record on your VCR or DVD recorder. For DVDs you might need to set the length of the recording you will be doing check your DVD-recorder manual on how to do this.

Hi Sandy,
Connect the composite cable (Red White Yellow) to the output of your Dish DVR and connect the other ends to the input on your VCR or DVD.
Using another set of cables connect the output of your VCR or DVD to the input on your TV. That way you can monitor what you are recording.
