Martin, this is a load of hassle, recording from an HD receiving box to a DVD recorder. You're losing the HD, scheduling will be complex, and you'll be stuck with the Humax tuned to that channel whilst recording.
Better to get a Freeview HD RECORDER (PVR) than simply a receiver. You can then 'archive' stuff from it onto the DVD recorder if you really want to keep it.
