Recording DVD's from Dish 721 PVR's?

Has anyone had experience hooking up a DVD recorder to a 721? If so, are there any DVD recorders that are better for this than others?

You hook up your 721 to your DVD recorder. The best way to hook it up is by using the S Video connection.

DVD RAM is the media the DVD Recorder uses. The type of DVD media used is depended on the type of DVD recorder you use.

They are a form of re-writeable dvd that is supposed to be re-recordable for thousands of times... the higher cost Panasonic dvd Recorders also come with Hard drives making editing easier...but panasonics only record to dvd-r and rams, there are brands that record to Rw's and the +R formats as well.
