How to archive using the DVR530 HD - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

Just wondering if there is a way to archive shows I've recorded to an external hard disk or any other medium for that matter.

You could easily hook up a DVD recorder to the S-video or composite video output. See:

You would be recording a 480i signal and not HD, obviously.

I don't believe that firewire is available/active on *C, so you can't transfer the HD files.
