Quoted: It really depends on the outputs from your DVR as your computer is probably more flexible than it. My DVR has S-Video and Component (RCA) type outputs but no digital output so I have to go though the "analog hole". That means going from digital down to analog and then doing a capture back to digital. I use a Canopus firewire interface for my computer but it sounds like you've got a capture card like an "all-in-wonder" card. Don't forget that S-video is better quality than Composite and that it has no sound so you'll have to run a second set of cables for the audio.
I haven't seen a DVR which will allow you to do digital dubs yet.

Yesterday, I got a MOXIE pvr. It has ethernet, 4 USB, 1 firewire, DVI, composite connections.
I don't know how to connect the box to my PC as I haven't plugged it into my network yet.
but, the cable guy said that I could port my recordings to my PC
Anyway, it looks pretty powerful and the cable co. made me sign my life away just to rent it
