I understand that we can not record from Roku, movies. But what about programs like God’s Learning Channel? We have recorded them before on our Free To Air Satellite, in fact they encourage people to record, And how can we set up the Roku to be used with a DVD/VCR Recorder? There has to be a way! Any suggestions? Thanks! Darrell

Are you talking about the HDMI cable to the DVD instead of the TV
