We now use a cable-provider box DVR constantly to record programs and watch them whenever we like, and very rarely do we watch shows "live" anymore.
There have been a few times, though, where we would have liked to save a particularly good program more permanently onto DVD. (Even if we choose to save a program long-term on the DVR, any problem with the box and we'll lose it. And they've disabled the external USB connection to expand disk space.)
I know there are really good DVD recorders on the market now. But I'm guessing they still work with a single recording session onto a DVD at a time. (So if all you have is a 30 min show that you want to record, it will record it on the DVD just fine, but essentially waste the remaining space.)
Or has the technology improved? Do any use a type of DVR buffering to build a disc set?
Ideally, we'd like to transfer 2 or more programs from our DVR onto a single DVD... without recording the menu steps as we select the next program!
