Has anyone done this and had success ? I used to do it when I had dish years ago and it worked great. The quality of the DVD was very good. I have uverse and have for the last few years. Tried to do this with my uverse dvr and the quality of the recording was horrible. And about half the things I tried to record on to DVD it gave some message about cannot record due to copyrights or something. That never happened when I had dish.
