by simply adding a tv tuner card into your pc or using an external usb tuner card. use the pvr software that comes with the device or search the net for advanced pvr controls and functions.this may not be practical for everyone as you need to run video/audio cables from the stb to the pc.but a great way to personal video recording with a standard fta receiver and especially good if your pc already has a dvd burner for making hard copies latter.
