I am getting sky+ installed at the weekend and wondering if I am able to network the box in some way with my powerbook. I understand in records the programmes to the hard disk in mpeg2 format. I would want to get the programmes off the box and onto my powerbook so I can burn to dvd. Is it possible? I can't seem to find any specs on the box to see what connections it has.
Thanked in advance

I got it
There is no easy way toget the recordings off the box, as they are not in any readable format.
Easiest way is hook up a dv camcorder and get the recordings on DV then just run them through imovie and idvd.

...or buy an EyeTV. They have a digital satellite version now, that takes a Sky subscriber card.
I'm quite interested in the Freeview version.
Let us know how the Sky+ goes though. I think their integration with the EPG is top-notch.
