Ok. I haven't did a search of this but here goes. I recently ditched my Dish Network DVR due to local channels being moved to a satellite I can not receive.

I have a Tivo thru my local cable company. I also have a Dish Network DP301 receiver. Is there any way to record from the 301 to the Tivo. It is just 1 channel I'd like to record and I would just leave the 301 on and tuned to the correct channel.

Will the Tivo record from another source other than from the cable? Is the question I have. If so how can I do it? :confused:
 
I don't know what tivo you have from cable, but I know stand-alone tivos can record from a 301 and cable no problem. The tivo's I have seen have auxilliary inputs on them (RCA and svideo inputs) for external video sources.

You can even use the IR blasters to change channels on the 301.

Dish problems, slow to get tech out.
