Hi
Looking for some quick advice. I want to purchase a dvd recorder with hard drive. I currently have NTL cable tv which is analogue, no decoder box or annything. Man in currys tells me there is no way I can watch one channel and record another if I purchase a dvd recorder with hard drive. I thought that this only applied if you had digital tv? Anyone know for definite. I was thinking of getting a samsung or maybe an LG recorder with 80 gb hard drive.

If you have analogue cable that doesn't need an STB, it should work. I would presume you can tune each cable channel in to your television individually. Same can be done with the DVD Recorder - eg record UTV on DVD, and watch RTE1 on TV.
