My parents just upgraded to DirecTV HD. My mother also bought a Blu-Ray player thinking it could record. (Told them to always ask me before making electronics purchases, but do they listen?).

Anyway, I come over to do my laundry and my mother now wants me to find a way to get a recording off their DirecTV HD DVR to my dad's iMac to, in turn, burn onto a DVD.

The DirecTV HD DVR has two USB connections and two Eathernet jacks. The iMac has Firewire, Ethernet, and USB.

My main issue is how to get the DVR file over to the Mac.

Help?
