How can I burn a DVD from a DVR?

[Matteblack]

I have a program on my DVR previously recorded that I would like to burn to a DVD. Can someone tell me how its done? I see several solutions for burning live programs from DVR to a DVD but not ones already recorded.
Thanks in advance!

You might start by telling us what make and model DVR you have.

It's a Motorola HD Dual Tuner DVR RNG200N.

You will most likely have to "capture" and then re-compress the video again as DVRs generally aren't going to have a way to access the digital source video. The easiest solution is to buy a DVD recorder (~$75 on Amazon) and hook it up with RCA cables and just copy between them. You still might run into copy protection issues though depending on your source video.

I have a good quality Sony DVD recorder so I may have to experiment with mine as there is a few programs I'd like to have aphysical copy of.

Does your model have a USB port in front? I've been able to copy onto a flash drive, then load onto my computer. Then I can burn that file to a disc. It loses a bit of quality, but nothing too bad.
