If you've recorded them on your DVD recorded, are they not already on a DVD? Or does your DVD recorder have a HD to which you've recorded the programmes? If it's the latter, there should be a function on your recorder which should allow you to transfer programmes from the HD to a DVD at varying quality. The lower the quality, the more you will get on a DVD, but the poorer the picture. I've got a Pioneer DVD recorder with a HD and this is what you can do with that.
