Hey everyone. I'm still pretty new to the forum been around for awhile but not posted in a long time. Not sure if this is the right spot to post this. Anyway heres the deal. I watch a lot of boxing and want to record the fights that I really love. I ordered a ppv and have it saved to my Directv HD DVR. The program is in HD also. I want to be able to put the program from my DVR to my computer so I can then burn it to a dvd. Is this possible? My DVD burner is not a HD burner. If it is possible, could anyone tell me how to do it? I searched but I couldn't find what I needed.

since DVDs are not high def, there aren't any high def DVD burners, unless you are referring to blu ray (or HD-DVD which is now a dead format.) you will need an analog capture card for your computer. you can get an external USB one or an internal PCI or PCI express card. you'll also need a video editing program such as adobe premiere which will allow you to ingest (capture), edit, and burn the footage to DVD.

For the best quality mp3s use EAC (exact audio copy) to rip your audio CDs and LAME to encode them. Follow this guide:
