Work, walks with children, visits to parents, obligatory events and meetings with friends take up a lot of time, and this time is not always spent with benefit and pleasure. Sometimes you just want to watch something interesting on TV. If you have a vintage VCR, you can simply record your favorite program and watch it at a convenient time, if you have a DVD-player with a recording function - even better. But nowadays, having a computer is enough.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way to record live TV on your computer is to use Windows Media Center. In addition, the program makes it possible to configure the automatic recording of the program, so that later at a convenient time you can view it.
