Directivo and enternal dvd burner

Archived from groups: alt.video.ptv.tivo (More info?)

I currently have a Directivo Phillips DSR-708 unit.

I also have an iomega external dvd burner. The ports on the back
consist of a square usb port and two RCA jacks (red and white).

I want to be able to burn TIVO recordings or live TV directly to a DVD.

Is there a way to hook the Iomega to the Phillips DSR708 and directly
burn DVDs? Seems like it should, but I cannot figure out a connection.

I also own a DAC-100 FireWire Digital/Analog Video Capture-Converter
that I can stick in the mix.

Since there is only a usb square port and two audio ports (no firewire
or s-video) input on the external burner, I am not sure how to do this.

Thanks

It sounds like where your burner has no video in, you're out of luck doing
this real time. What you'd probably need to
do is use the canopus to capture the audio/video to your PC, then burn from
your PC to your burner. Most external
DVD burners these days simply don't support what you're trying to do (note,
I'm not referring to dedicated home stereo
type DVD burners, but PC related burners).
