DVR connection to D-VCR

Sorry for the naivete of this question, but I am trying to figure out how to connect a Sony DVR (component out--no coaxial cable out) to a high defintion VCR that has only a coaxial input or one that has a firewire input with component outputs. The idea is to be able to archive high definition recordings from the the DVR to the VCR. I'm stumped? and the web has not helped much... It does not sound like an RF modulator would work as this would not be high definition. Shoots maybe the D-VCR cannot even decode the high def digital signal? (One of the D-VCRs is the Mitsubishi and the other is the JVC)

I am curious about this also. I have a HD Dishnetwork DVR (Model 9??) and I would like to transfer some of the stored HD programming to another medium (preferably DVD). How can I do this ? do I need a HD VCR or Blu Ray writer. What is my best option ?. I noticed there is a USB port on the front of the reciever. Can this be used to transfer the HD programs from the hard drive of my receiver to the hard drive of my PC/Notebook ? Any other options ?

Thanks
