I usually transfer recordings from my Sky+ box to my DVD recorder via Scart and by setting the Sky box to "Play" with the DVD recorder set to "Record", so it is all real-time and it works well.
Circumstances have arisen which mean that it would be great if I could move both boxes away from their current locations and do this either on the dining room table or in another room (with a 14" portable telly so that I can keep an eye on what's going on). Would this work OK or does the Sky+ box need to be connected to the dish and actively receiving a signal for some reason (viewing card would still be in the slot but no connection to the dish)?
Thanks
