[QUOTE="cjgall, post: 30556, member: 175963"] Its not possible to have a PVR receiver record program's from a Sky box, not on the one currently available. You can record BBC and other FTA stuff from Sky on a PVR though. What I have done is use the loop through on a PVR satellite box to connect my Sky box, my dish is motorized. Bear in mind that the Sky box cannot control the motor though, this is done by the PVR box. I sometimes get a 'No satellite signal' error on the Sky box but switching it off and then back on fixes this. For recording none FTA stuff on Sky I use a VCR and the Sky EPG. The VCR switches on and off automtically so there is no need to program it with the start and end times. You could also do the same with a set top DVD recorder or a set top hard disk recorder although that would be an expensive option. [/QUOTE]
