Transfer of a recording?

I have a thompson freeview recorder 250GB. I have program I recorded on the library way back in 08/2011 that I would like to transfer to a DVD disk. I have tried a scart lead from the box to a DVD Panasonic player I have, no joy, tried a audio transfer using the three colour plug leads but still nothing. I have also tried a transfer from the plugs on the back of the TV while the program is player but still nothing. Any ideas anyone ?
