I am having problems connecting my direct TV satellite with tivo/dvr to my dvd recorder and TV. I have it hooked up but it won't record.

Out of Satellite, into Recorder, out of recorder and into TV.
If TV has another input, and sat has another output, you can hook that up as well.
You will have to select by chanel 3 or Video inputs.
Your recorder will need to be set to record the correct input.
Try: Welcome to Monster®
Then click "Home theater connection guide" it will help exlain the ins and outs, as well as best cables to use for what's available on your equipment.

I have the direct TV HD dvr with 2 connections to be able to record 1 show while still watching another channel. I tried to burn dvr'd shows to my dvd player but it won't burn. Any suggestions? Thanks TCAFLA
