Sky+ and recoding over to DVD probs - can you advise?

Hello all,

I wonder if anyone is aware of sky copy protecting some programmes being
recorded to another medium from Sky+.
The reason for my question is that I have tried to record the last episode
of Desperate housewives onto DVD and I get an error message on my DVD
recorder saying 'Cannot record this picture'.
I have recorded other stuff on the sky plus such as MTV music videos and
these have recorded with no problem. This leads me to think it is not a
problem with my DVD recorder.

Does anyone know why this could be happening?
Please post if you do.
Thanks all in advance,
Adam

Have you tried power cycling the DVD and the Sky+?

Sorry to be dumb - what is power cycling?
Do you mean turning off the power and restarting it again?
Cheers
Adam
BTW I have tried doing the above.
