Correct, using the DVR capability to record a channel from YouTube TV or Hulu Live does not use any bandwidth at all. The data generated by YouTube or Hulu goes directly into storage without coming into your home at all.

You need bandwidth to watch the shows but that is true for all streaming whether it is Netflix, Hulu Live or YouTube DVR.
