You'll be able to play DVDs through the 522 only if your unit has av inputs as well as outputs. My Dish 508/510 units don't. I send the output from my DVRs through a Canopus, capturing and editing the video in iMovie and burning DVDs in iDVD. If you don't need to edit, then going straight to a standalone DVD recorder is the easiest way.
