How do you record from sky to dvd recorder?

Can I record Sky TV with a DVD/Video recorder?

  • I have just bought a very expensive Toshiba DVD/video/HDD recorder alosng with a brand new TV. I also have Sky. Everything is connected OK - it has been checked but I can't recored Sky. Can you recored from the Sky box/sattelite or does all recording have to come from the ariel ie, terrestrial? I live in the country and the TV pics are rubbish unless watching through the Sky dish. Please help...

  • Answer:

    You can record from Sky. Run a scart cable from the Sky box to your video/DVD/HDD Recorder and record on your Auxiliary (AU) Channel on the machine.

you can record from sky but you must make sure sky is on and on the right chanel (you can still watch terrestrial tv at the same time tough)

Make sure Sky box is connected to 2nd scart on recorder, probably marked 'cbl/sat/aux' When you want to record Sky, set recorder's input to this scart, probably marked 'AV or input', otherwise it'll just record through it's ariel input. Home entertainment systems can be a pain to set up properly. My system looks like spaghetti junction behind the telly. If all else fails, you could admit defeat & try deciphering the instruction books!
