Will this transfer DVR (TV) media to DVD?

I'm not sure. I did not have mine long enough to try that. If you try it & it does could you tell me? The recorders that I've seen other folks use will record it from a DVR, but it's not 720 or 1080. It's only 480( standard def).

Only if it is an external dvd recorder/player, check the compatibility for software version, and operating system supported. Good luck.

This unit does not transmit audio or video signals from a DVR, in case that is your question.It only repeats signals generated by the handheld remote control.

No, the DVR saves the video to its internal hard drive. If your DVR was purchased without an internal hard drive installed, then you can install an internal hard drive to your unit

Yes see my listing for the 2TB DVR Expander from Western Digital - but note that it is only compatible with certain DVRs. See my other listings as well.

No it doesn't. That's why its so cheap. I used my old VCR as a tuner to record tv shows to DVDs, I don't have a DVR so I can't say. If you have a cable box it should work, a cable box/satellite box is a tuner.

I have some old VHS tapes from Europe (PAL system) which I want to convert to DVD. Would this software work for such a purpose.

Yes it will mine works great very easy to do. Just plug in the transimtter and put the reciever in line of sight of the dvr and you will be good to go.

Possibly, but there is an easier solution. The TiVo has an eSATA port which allows you to attach an external drive. I have a 1 TB Western Digital My Book AV DVR Expander (under $100 from Amazon) attached to mine. The TiVo automatically recognizes the external drive and transparently manages it as an extension of the internal drive. Easy, simple and effective.

Yes or DVD to VHS. Very easy to use to do that as long as you have the right DVD. They have to be DVD -R, not +R.

We used this only to play VCR tapes or DVD's. I don't believe it could record DVD. I think it can record the VCR from the cable box but we never used it. We just record the programs on the DVR for a long time now.

No because of copyright laws and industry restrictions - this will not happen on a device that writes to portable recording media (DVD, Blu-ray, etc). The idea being - as I understand it - to restrict/reduce/eliminate anything but streaming media to consumers. Your satellite, cable, etc PVR/DVR's that have hard drives only - encrypt that data at rest on the hard drive. Your DVR/PVR HDMI output signal checks to see if the receiving device is DMCP - digital media copyright protection compliant - and these devices will not be compliant as the industry and law are currently. I would recommend AVS forums for any indepth discussion of this subject. This is very high level - and I'm not an expert.

No it won't. Don't waste your money. I ended up using Costco to transfer my mini tapes onto DVD.

I heard of Ispy dvr software that can be downloaded that does well for what you ask.

The Direct TV Connect Kit will work with HD DVR from Direct TV. It will NOT work with the TIVO Direct TV unit, they have a software issue.

Yes, if your DVR has RCA audio/video inputs on it. This item comes with an adapter, that plugs into the extension cable from the camera, that has two RCA type plugs on it (one video, one audio) And these plug into the RCA input jacks on any VCR, DVD recorder, or a DVR. Mind is plugged into a DVD recorder's input A/V jacks and works great that way. BTW: It's output is composite video which might cause a problem if the video inputs aren't that type too

I never needed one to record on my samsung unit to record from dvr to dvd but I never try it on this one, I recommend to you that if you have the unit already try to record and connect the dvd to the tv so you can monitor the image turn the channel until you see it on the tv screen.
