Well the answer unfortunately is NO...yet...Slingmedia is preparing their new Slingplayer 2.0 which apparently will allow us to record TV shows on our PC's, with the Clip+Sling feature, but we have to wait until that.

My daughter lives in Itay and would like to have some of the shows on my DVR. I am going again soon and would like to leave some DVDs for her.
Anyway to capture the picture on my PC via slingbox onto a DVD??????
A little far fetched but just wondering. Just in case I do get my second Slingbox working.

Actually, the answer is "Yes" - almost.
If your DVR is being used as input into the SlingBox, it can be recorded using a couple of available tools. Anything that your SlingBox can stream can be recorded with these programs. The recording is not a DVD, but the files can be copied as data to a DVD and played on Windows PC with the MS Media Player.
The product that I use is Applian's At-Large Recorder:

The other product is the SLR Slinger - do a search on the forums for the details. Though I have played with this tool, I do not have a current link to it - perhaps someone else can post a link.
Enjoy,

Slinger is described and is available (free) at http://www.benlo.com/slingbox/
I too have just played with it but it seems to work pretty well. I don't know if it is the best solution for your task.
