Abstract
A method of transfer of a pre-recorded video program. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for the automatic transfer of a pre-recorded video program from a digital video recorder (DVR) to a video cassette recorder (VCR). A user selects a pre-recorded video program and assigns an associated transfer period that includes a transfer date, record start time, and a record stop time. The associated transfer period associated with a selected pre-recorded program is entered as a record in a list of transfer records on the DVR. At the appointed associated transfer period, the DVR automatically sends a command to power on a remotely coupled VCR and begin recording. The DVR then transfers the selected video program to the VCR. The DVR can recognize timing conflicts between two transfer records and prompts a user to edit one of the conflicting records to avoid the timing conflict.
