Recording programmes onto video/DVD
You can record satellite programmes from your Sky box to your video or DVD
recorder.
To record a satellite programme, make sure:
• you have read the user guide that came with your video/DVD recorder
for details.
• your video recorder is set up properly
(see the chapter Your Sky box for the connections).
• your Sky box is on and tuned to the channel you want to record.
• your video/DVD recorder’s timer is set.
The AutoView feature is handy for recording programmes because
it automatically tunes your Sky box to a programme when it starts.
For details, see Changing channels automatically with AutoView.
Some video/DVD recorders start recording an AutoView programme
automatically if they’re connected to your Sky box with a SCART cable.
Your video/DVD recorder’s user guide should be able to tell you if you
can do this on yours.
Some programmes are copy-protected and may not play back correctly
if you record them. Copy-protected programmes are marked with a C in
the programme information banner.
