Not easily. FireSticks only output on HDMI and there are no DVD Recorders with HDMI record inputs. You would need an HDMI-to-RCA composite video converter since that's the input you'll find on a DVD Recorder.

Hi Valforu21. I'm here to assist you. To clarify, are you trying to record DIRECTV content from a fire stick to a DVD recorder? Juan, DIRECTV Community Specialist

How are you viewing DirecTV channels on your FireStick?

What are you trying to record from the FireStick?

Or are you just asking a general question about recording anything from your FireStick to a DVD Recorder?  

Like I said earlier, you'll need an HDMI-to-Composite RCA Video adapter to feed the audio/video into your DVD Recorder. It's not an easy process.

At that point it may be more feasible to hook up the dvd recorder to an actual DIRECTV receiver.
