How to record programmes from Sky to DVD Recorder?

Question

I have just recently installed sky (Discovery, National Geographic, History, Documentary and Art), I also have a Sony DVD recorder, with capability to record on its Hard Drive.

I want to record programmes which begin at 1am, by which time I will be asleep, how do I do this?

Do I have to book the program on the sky decoder and set the timer on the recorder?

Thanks

You'll have to leave sky on the appropriate channel, then set your dvd recorder as normal. Don't use the program reminder, I did that once and ended up with the reminder dialog obscuring my programme for 15 minutes or so. I think you can adjust how long this stays up, however.
