How do you back up a DVR? Tech tard here. :( It depends on the DVR. I have a Topfield DVR and I can connect it with a USB cable to my laptop and via that to the external hard drive - very easy! But I do know that some DVR:s have different external connections, some don't have USB, for example, so you should check the manual. Will inspect DVR for USB when I get home. Thanks!

Best way to find out is check the manual for what kind out outlets the DVR has.

Following Eber's twitter ....Yes the secret sister is still a secret. Editing to Neil fashion of snark....it would have been funny if Neil had put a question mark after his comment. There is indeed another Lambert sibling? (Boy, quite the dry spell eh!)

We might have to replace our dvr n e ways. we had some brown outs. that might of messed it up :( I downloaded Adam's Journey which is all the idol shows edited just with Adam and the judges comments I did not want the rest so I deleted all the shows except the finale from my dvr. Someone at PF had put up the link maybe someone has the link to download it still. Its 2 hours long and took me 5 hours to download. But its great with only Adam and not commercials to go through. I can only watch it on my pc as I have not figured out how to convert it for my tv.
