    I have comcast and can record tv shows on DVR.
    Can I make a DVD on computer from that?

    Capture off the S-Video or composite outputs.

    In addition to edDV's advice, if you have the right cable box you might be able to capture using the Firewire port on the box.

    See:

    and
    http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?threadid=403695&referrerid=0
    for some info.

    (I've done this a few times in the past, but not recently, so I have no idea if this is still possible or not. And it may only be possible for some channels and not others. Trial and error, and YMMV apply here. )
