Get a video capture box for a VCR to PC connection.  This will work well with the DVR as well.  I'm not sure if that USB port can stream content from your DVR but the capture box will do the trick very nicely.

Use MS XP pro...get a video card...and RCA cables...hook the output of U VCR to the input of the Video card....U should be able to handle the rest!

If you could also post a model for us, or as much detail (e.x. Humax Tivo DVD Recorder) as possible, we can help you more.\n\nIf it's a tivo, go to Settings->Phone and Network->Connect to the Tivo Service now.\n\nOtherwise, I'm going to need more info to help you.\n\nHere is the downloads (not software) but manuals page. If you could identify your model it would help us to help you:\nhttp://www.humaxusa.com/support_qni.asp

yes, they can and some of the new laptops are having them already built in. but you can also buy one called the PCTV HD Pro Stick and it comes with software that will turn your laptop into a TIVO like system or like the Windows Media Center.  Its a USB plug in...pretty cool....a bit pricy, about  $129.99 bones...... oh ya ...it comes with a remote......ya...

I've been wondering the same thing and came across this cool device called a 'Slingbox' that would allow you to watch your TiVo, Cable, DVR (and tv, dvds, etc) across the internet on any computer.\n\nhttp://www.slingmedia.com

I use a program called Total Recorder to record Internet streaming. It's an excellent program.

If you want to record and watch TV on your PC then there is only one name that comes to mind, Hauppauge.\n\nI use the Win TV PVR USB2 where I have connected the VCR and convert all my old videos to digital.\n\nHave Fun!!!\n\nBattery Wizard

Unfortunately there's no simple way to do this, other than to buy a recording card for your computer and plug it into the video output of your box. There's no way of accessing the files recorded on the Sky+ hard disk directly - even if you break open the box and plug the disk directly into your laptop.

You could burn it into your computer and burn it out. Or if you have a dvr you could burn directly from dvd to blank cd on you computer, asuming you have Nero.

You can buy patch cords that allow you to transfer video from some types of video cameras and VCRs direct to your PC.  They usually come with some software too.  It all depends on the type of camera you have and your PC.  Go to any big computer store (like Comp USA) and they should be able to hook you up (no pun intended).  Also try tigerdirect.com.

generaly you vhs camcorder has a Video-Out connection, this can connect to your computer, however, you need a Video-Input on your computer.\n\nthere is a simple item, that plugs into your USB port, and can be used for Audio/Video input to your computer, and you can take those files and burn to dvd (with dvd creation software)

There are a few different options.\n\n1) DVD-RW/VCR combo set top.\nThis should be fairly simple to set up. Much like connecting a dvd or vcr player to the tv.  If you're not as computer savvy i'd recommend this option.\n\n2)DVR-RW burner & capture card/device for your computer.\nThis option is a bit morecomplex due to the fact that you will have to connect your vcr to the capture device which is connected to the computer.  Import the video to some software..lets say Microsoft Movie Maker.  Edit the video, taking out portions you don't want.  THe finally use dvd-movie burning software to create the dvd disc (nero would work well).\n\nSo again... option 1 is the easiest to go with.\nHope this helps.
