Hello,

I am new to the site and have tried to search out my answers on the forums, but I have not been successful. Maybe it is here, but I am not finding it. I would like to record live tv shows from russia that stream on the web for my mother in law. I would like to possible save them to a DVR or in a way that would be easy for her to select the program that is coming on and record it if she would like and watch at a later date. The majority of the programs she watches come on during the day in Russia and it is night time in the States for us. I would appreciate it if someone would let me know if this is possible or maybe provide me with some suggestions. I hope that I dont have to manually record every program she wants and then put them on a hard drive for her to access. It could be a full time job, lol. Thanks in advance and have a good day.

I know the site says that i can record throught there site, but only 10 hours of programs. I would like to have more and keep it local at my house. Thanks for the reply

They use Windows Media streams for previews.

For downloading Windows Media streams I recommend to use WM Recorder in the ADA mode, freeware GetASFStream or SDPReceiver.

For capturing Windows Media streams from your local Windows Media Player I recommend to use WM Recorder in the PRO mode, or freeware WebVideoCap.

WM Recorder allows to schedule live stream recording, so this may work for you.
