Recording to DVD from DVR

Question

I used to have Bright House, when a progeam was finished being watched on the DVR an option was to "Record to VCR." (We used the DVD recorder). There is no option like this with FIOS. I called Verizon support (HAHA) and the agent told me - get this - that I had to call the manufacturer of the DVD recorder. I mentioned how lame an answer that was and he laughed. Would have been better off with the stock answer of "It's not available in your area."
Anybody have any fixes for this or know when it wil be available, if ever?

You can always transfer (via component, s-video, composite, or RF) to an external device like a VCR or DVD recorder.  The only caveat is that you won't be able to watch anything other than what you are transferring.  Don't know if Brighthous allowed transfer while watcing something else, but for now, that is the only way to accomplish what you are asking.
