My DirecTV input is going to the tuner of the card. That part is working just fine. I just wasn't sure how to set it up so I could record off my VCR. I have a bunch of tapes of when my kids were little that I want to record off the VCR tapes and burn to DVD so they aren't lost (VCR tapes seem to decay fairly fast). So it looks like I can just do the setup as Mercury described. I'll give that a try. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
