Hey guys, I have a laptop connected to my TV, and I have a Sony DVD-recorder, which is new. I want to record a Movie that I'm watching on the internet from for example Netflix, I want to record it and put it on a DVD, how do I do that? I can't figure it out for the life of me!- Please help!
Hi Yaakovben, Firstly, how is your laptop connected to your TV? Secondly, by DVD-Recorder, do you mean a DVD burner attached (either internally or externally) to your laptop or a DVD-Recorder connected to your TV? If it's a recorder connected to your TV, what model is it? I think either way it's possible depending on how you've got things connected. Let us know and we'll see what we can do.
IF you are watching it on the computer than you need to find video grabbing software that will record whatever is on your screen to a file than from there convert it and burn it if you have a dvd burner that connects directly to your tv and burns whatever is on there you only need to connect you computer to you tv with s-video cable or something along those lines than record directly to the dvd, for best results make sure nothing is open but movie on your computer
Hi guys sorry to go off track but can anyone tell me please can i get a cable that will allow me to watch movies on my tv that i have downloaded on my laptop without having to burn them to dvd. thanks
HI mickymac, If your laptop has an s-video port like the one pictured on the right in this link, it's possible to get a s-video to rca (red, white and yellow) cable and plug it into your TV
cheers thanks for the quick reply, i have the port in the laptop will get the cable tomorrow .again many thanks
