Part 1: Burn TV Shows to DVD Disc using DVD Recorder<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n
A DVD recorder is an optical disc recorder that uses optical disc recording technologies to digitally record analog or digital signals onto blank writable DVD media. Such devices are available as either installable drives for computers or as standalone components for use in television studios or home theater systems.\u00a0Assuming that you have a DVD recorder, its remote control, and a TV with remote control and OTA signal, and considering that the TV and DVD recorder are properly connected to each other, things would be much easier. <\/p>\n

<\/a>\n<\/div>\nYou can follow the steps given below to record TV\u00a0shows\u00a0to DVD\u00a0with DVD Recorder: <\/p>\n
Step 1: DVD setup: Use the DVD remote control to select the Input Select option and then select AV 1 or AV 2 depending on the jacks of the DVD recorder you connected the cables to. <\/p>\n
Step 2: TV setup: Scan and tune in to the channel you want to record, use the TV remote control to choose the source input with the help of TV\/Video, Input, Game, etc. button. Note: Although the model of your TV and the name of the button may vary, the function remains the same. If you are new to the field, you may need to refer to the television owner’s manual guide for further details. <\/p>\n
Step 3: Insert a blank DVD in the recorder, when prompted, initialize the disc to prepare it for recording, and then press the Rec. (or Record) button on the remote control of the DVD recorder to record TV shows to DVD. <\/p>\n
Step 4: Once you are done recording, press the Menu button on the DVD recorder’s remote control. Then go to Disc Settings (or Disc Menu in some models), select Disc Finalize, and select OK on the confirmation box that appears to finalize the disc that can be played on any other DVD player. <\/p>\n
Note: An unfinalized DVD can be performed only on the recorder. However, once the DVD finalization is completed, no data can be written or edited on the DVD, but it can be played on any other\u00a0DVD\u00a0player. <\/p>\n
Part <\/strong>2<\/strong>: Before You Start to Burn TV Shows to DVD<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n
There would be two different types of TV shows: one is common TV shows downloaded online and the other is TV shows purchased from iTunes Store and other stores. The difference mainly lies in the protection.
\n Before you try to burn TV shows to DVD disc for playback on DVD player or computer, you firstly need to make sure whether your source TV shows are encrypted or not<\/strong>. Generally speaking, TV shows recorded with recording tools are free of protection, while TV shows purchased from iTunes or other stores are encrypted. <\/p>\n\n<\/a><\/div>\nSection 1: Convert iTunes DRM TV shows to DRM-free MP4 video for burning to DVD<\/strong><\/h3>\n
To burn those encrypted TV shows, mostly DRM protected, you need firstly remove the protection with professional protection removal tool. Here we would like to recommend you an effective DRM removal program to help you remove DRM protection upon purchased TV shows from iTunes - Leawo Prof. DRM<\/u><\/a>, which removes DRM protection of TV shows automatically in background and helps you convert iTunes DRM TV shows to DRM-free MP4 video files for burning to DVD content with various TV show to DVD burner software tools. <\/p>\n
Download and install Leawo Prof. DRM on your computer. And then follow the below steps to learn how to convert iTunes DRM TV shows to DRM-free MP4 video files with it in detail. <\/p>\n
1. Click “Add Files” button on the sub-menu bar \u00a0or “Drag iTunes Files Here” button in the middle of program interface to add TV shows from iTunes library. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n2. Before removing DRM from iTunes M4V, you can choose an M4V and click “Edit” button to freely choose audio tracks and subtitles for keeping in the output MP4 video file. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n3. Click “…” button at the bottom of “Home” list to set an output directory for containing output MP4 file. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n4. Click the big green "Convert" button and then set output directory in the "Save to" box on the popup sidebar. After that, click the bottom "Convert" button to start converting TV shows.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nYou then only need to wait for the conversion to complete. Once the conversion completes, your iTunes TV shows would become DRM-free MP4 video files. Actually, with Leawo Prof. DRM, you could convert iTunes videos, audios and audiobooks to DRM-free files easily. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Note: If it’s your first time to use Leawo Prof. DRM to convert iTunes TV shows, you will be asked to authorize the conversion with your Apple ID and passcode. <\/p>\n
Section 2: <\/strong>Convert regular TV shows for burning to DVD content<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
There are TV shows saved in video formats that are not compatible with your DVD burner software. In such case you actually need to firstly convert TV shows to DVD burner software compatible video files. You could use Leawo Video Converter<\/u><\/a>\u00a0to help you do this. As a professional video converter tool, Leawo Video Converter could convert video files between various formats like MP4, AVI, MKV, FLV, MOV, WMV, 3GP, etc.
\n Download and install Leawo Video Converter on your computer. And then follow the below steps to learn how to convert TV shows for burning to video files. <\/p>\n1. Launch this TV show video converter. Click "Add Video" button to browse and add TV shows purchased from iTunes. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n2. Click the drop-down button before the big green "Convert" button and then select "Change" option to select a profile as output on the Profile panel. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n3. (Optional) You could adjust the audio and video parameters of output profile like video codec, audio codec, bit rate, aspect ratio, frame rate, etc. by clicking the "Edit" option on the drop-down panel. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n4. Click the big green "Convert" button and then set output directory in the "Save to" box on the popup sidebar. After that, click the bottom "Convert" button to start converting TV shows. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nNote<\/strong>: Leawo Video Converter automatically removes DRM protection of iTunes TV shows in background, requiring no manual operation. <\/p>\n
After checking source TV shows, please make clear which kind of DVD content you want to get: DVD disc, DVD folder or simply DVD ISO image file<\/strong>. To burn TV shows to DVD disc, you need to get a computer with DVD burner (DVD recorder drive), blank and writable DVD disc (DVD-R\/DVD+R\/DVD-RW\/DVD+RW), and DVD burning software to burn TV shows to DVD disc directly. To burn TV shows to DVD folder or ISO image file, you need to get enough hard drive space.
\n <\/p>\n<\/p>\nPart <\/strong>3<\/strong>: Burn TV Shows to DVD with Windows Media Center<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n
You can use Windows Media Center, a home entertainment center in Windows, to watch and record live TV, burn TV shows to DVD, create slide shows of your photos, listen to songs in your music library, and play CDs and DVDs. If you don't have a Windows Media Center on your computer, click to Get Windows Media Center<\/a> from Microsoft. In this post, we would like to take Windows Media Center on Vista as an example to show you how to put TV shows on DVD disc (operations on Windows 7\/8\/XP might be a little bit different.)<\/p>\n
Before you start to burn TV shows to DVD, remove the video protection if neccessary, and insert a blank writable DVD disc into the DVD recorder drive. <\/p>\n
