How To Copy From My ReplayTV To My Computer DVD Burner?

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

My ReplayTV unit are is in one room. My computer is down a short
hallway, about 30 feet away. Can I connect the ReplayTV to my
computer so that I can copy a program I recorded to a DVD that will
play in the TV DVD player? What do I need to be able to do this?

Thanks for your reply. Actually I don't think my question has
anything to do with ReplayTV, and after I posted I was sorry I
mentioned the specific device.

The question should have been phrased:

"Can I connect a TV signal from a VCR or a TV hard disk recorder (or
even a live TV signal) to my computer, so that I can copy a program to
a my DVD writer that will play in a TV DVD player? If so, what do I
need to be able to do this?"
