Copy From A Satellite Receiver Onto A Cdrw

If your satellite receiver has a hard drive, you may find that you can transfer the data to your computer and burn to a CD-RW. There are a few ways to find out if you can copy the data to your computer. The satellite receiver must either have an Ethernet port or a USB port for this process to work. Once you've transferred your video data to your computer, you will be able to copy it to a CD-RW. This will not work on all satellite receivers, but it can be worth checking.
