I use a Sony Hard Drive/DVD recorder to make my back ups. It has got a 160GB hard drive so I can copy to the drive, edit if required then burn to DVD. Also I can vary the picture quality so I can get several hundred hours recorded on the drive at low quality. The only downside is you do loose some quality copying even at the highest quality which I suppose is to be expected when using a SCART cable. If I know I want to keep a programme for a while I record it on the recorder while watching it which saves time later.
Also as a bonus I can use the SA built in tuners and record two programmes while recording a third via the Sony recorder.
