I have a similar setup with my satellite tv. It came with a DVR receiver. I then hooked up my DVD recorder to my tv. As long as your DVD recorder is synced up with the channels that you receive on your tv, you can record from your DVR to disk. For example, since I have satellite tv, I only receive a signal on channel 73 on my tv. Therefore, I simply use my DVD recorder remote and set it to channel 73. Since you have cable tv and you are receiving signal on more than one channel, you have to go through the setup process on your DVD recorder to sync it with the tv. Instructions will be in your manual or probably can be found simply by pressing "setup" on your DVD recorder remote. Then, select the movie that you want to record on disk, press play. Then press record on your DVD recorder remote (after you have inserted a new disk to record on and it has been formatted). After recording, check to make sure the disk plays back correctly before deleting the movie from your DVR.
