Recordings - Sky+ to PC

Hi everyone,

I'm new here and this looks like an awesome forum, so I look forward to chatting with all of you.

I have a load of clips on my Sky+ box that I'd like to upload to my PC and share with you all, but I have no idea where to start and what to do. Any help would be much appreciated, preferably a step-by-step guide.

Thanks

-also, not sure if this is in the right section, apologies if it isn't.

Welcome to the forum Pope hope you enjoy it on here.

check this link http://www.babeshows.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?fid=23 for the tech zone of this site you might be able to find your answer there.
Hope this helps.

Thanks rover. I will repost a thread in that section, as I'm struggling to find the guides and things I need.

Hi Pope.

I would suggest that step one is to invest in TV capture card for you PC.

Then get a good Video editor, to edit your recordings. VirtualDub is good one you can get for free off the Internet.

After that, all you need is a host to upload your files too, and then you can post them.

Simplified list, but you get the gist.

Here are a few quotes from some of the threads within this section to get you on the way.

How to get content from Sky Plus onto your PC

(01-05-2009 15:55 )Josh Wrote:  These are the two most popular ways.

1. Dvd recorder. Tried and tested and very rarely lets u down.
2. Tv card. I have a duel anologue/digital card with S video input. Therefore I have s video cable between the sky+ box and the pc. To get audio, you will require an additional lead. (2 male phono to a 3.5mm stereo jack)

1. Copy to DVD
There is a great guide posted by Skateguy in the following thread.

If you would like to purchase a dvd recorder, I recommend buying one with an in-built HDD. It must also be compatible with DVD- r/rw disks.

2. TV Card

Most things tech wise that you are looking for have probably been covered within the many threads in this section. If you require any further help, post ur question here. Someone will be able to help you. Good luck and I/we look forward to seeing some of your uploads.
