How do I record satellite television to my computer?
Q. We have DISH network and I want to record a few movies and shows onto the computer's hard drive and then to a DVD. Do I need to have DVR to do this or can I do it with just a few cords or a special recording device? Is there a special recording device for this or do I have to plug my computer into the receiver somehow?
