A:AnswerThe instructions do not address use with automobile systems. However, it does include instructions for use with a television via a USB port.

A:AnswerShort answer: this alone will not record the way you are asking.
1) you need recording software either on the TV that saves a show and allows that file to be transferred to a computer OR hook the TV up to a computer that has recording software on it to record and save.
2) then you need to burn the file onto the DVD. Then that DVD could be played.
