Yes you can but it's not a function of the cable box. The easiest way to do this is to install an A/B switch to the incoming cable, then run one cable to the digital cable box and the other to your VCR. Then, you can watch TV on the digital cable box and record on the separate signal running to your VCR.

Your digital television/Freeview box will only have one digital tuner. Therefore, in order to watch a different freeview channel at same time as recording a freeview channel, you need to connect another freeview box to your set up. In order to keep wires to a minimum you may wish to purchase a DVD recorder and integrated freeview box like the RDRGXD500.

Yes, your cable TV line can carry the TV signal while you send and receive information on the Internet.

After several years of requests, it seems the University does not think Lawrence needs Tigernet. (Tigernet is a University subsidized package of several cable TV channels.) The community room in building 14 has basic cable and its rate of usage does not encourage the purchasing of a second package for the community room in building 1. Please use building 1 for DVDs for that reason.

No. Currently there are no cable descramblers on the market that will descramble digital cable signals.

In addition to your Sun Group Plasma TV, you will also need to access digital service. To receive most digital programming, your in-home equipment must have a digital tuner decoder box, usually obtained through the satellite or cable company providing your digital service. The box translates the digital signal for broadcast on the screen.

No. Like other Freeview PVRs, the TF5800 can only record from the built in tuners. It cannot record a signal from the SCART socket onto the hard disk. The same is true of the satellite models from Topfield. And while the satellite models will be able to record from your existing dish, you cannot use them to record channels that rely on a Sky viewing card, since the necessary CAM is not available. If you want to record from Sky One, you need a Sky+ box, or a PVR from your cable TV company.

r. Some Plasma TVs have a built-in analog tuner that will enable you to watch any "regular" television that would be available to a conventional television, though the picture quality would be about the same as a typical large-screen conventional TV. For those Plasma TVs that do not have the built in tuner, the signal can be passed through a satellite box, cable box, HDTV receiver, VCR/VHS device, or an outboard tuning device.

Yes you do. In order to establish a non-addressable system, it is essential to have a converter. A cable ready TV, VCR and a Cable Company box do not provide for this feature and in not doing so, cannot replace a converter. You must have a converter to use a descrambler. This is especially true if you desire a converter/descrambler that cannot be altered or addressed by your cable company.

First of all, TV watching is now your job. So tell everyone to get off your case. You have to watch TV to write TV. In particular you have to watch the hot shows everyone's talking about. You have to watch both the new shows, and the shows that keep coming up in conversation. You should be watching shows by accomplished writers like Amy Sherman-Palladino and Steve Bochco and Chris Carter and David Kelley.

My neighbor has a dog who completely and literally will watch TV in the same fashion as we. He can watch a movie from start to finish. Certain things set him off, excite him, or upset him. Controversy, kissing, shooting, this type of thing gets him very agitated - too much emotion involved in what he's seeing.

No. With HTC Digital Cable, you will subscribe to a set-top box that modifies the incoming digital signal so that it can be viewed on your current TV.

With CableAmerica Digital Cable you receive a digital converter box that modifies the incoming digital signal so that it can be viewed with your current TV.

It might be possible to get a USB capture card/TV card, but there will be a couple of problems. First, you will NEED a new hard drive period: 2 gigs will not cut it for video. Secondly, the XBox only supports USB 1.1 FULL Speed, NOT USB 2.0 HIGH Speed. So, the quality of your recordings be towards the lower end of the spectrum (VHS quality, or worse). It might be easier to just stick with a TiVo... Answer-2. Some DVB usb sticks work quite well (or indeed only) with usb 1.1.
