DVD-R Advice for new user

I have a home theater setup (receiver, DVD player, stereo, TV) and I'm using Dish Network as my satellite provider. I discovered when I switched from Cable to Dish Network that there was no way to configure the VHS to tape to this unit. I had to leave the TV on to get the shows I wanted to record.

Now I'm in the market for a DVD recorder and I want to expand the system, but I'm afraid of the same problem. Do most DVD-R systems come with hook up and configuration for satellite or do I need to go with the provider's box which is really expensive?

Is there anything in particular I should be looking for in a DVD-R besides a hard drive?

Connect the sat to the recorder with s-video or RCAs and set the recorder on whatever input you used. The same goes for a VCR.
