    No. The best you can do is copy them to a dvd recorder or computer with a capture card.

    Well the new Box arrived yesterday and today it started doing the same thing. I have the Back Light turned down all the way, I did that before I hooked up the new box. What are my options?

    Thanks guys but I found a solution after extensive searching the internet, Put a piece of Masking tape over the sensor on the DVR and that stoped the IR interference.

    I'm confused, are you using your DVR in IR or RF mode? Your Harmony isn't RF is it?

    Some of the LCD HDTV's give off alot of IR interference and I read that if you put a piece of paper tape over the sensor it cuts down on it and the remote will work, all remotes.

    Hopefully, the tape you used is somewhat transparent.

    I have heard of others using a piece of electrical tape with a pin hole in it.

    I found that the Box Tape with the nylon string in it works the best.
