You cannot use this to record from any source other than the built in Freeview digital tuner.
If you want to record from NTL cable you would need a DVD recorder.0 -
b ugger Any reccomendations is it not possible to record to any hard drive with cable?0

A normal hard disk recorder should do it. You can get them with DVD recorders and/or Video built-in.Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0

Yes any DVD recorder with or without a hard drive will record from NTL cable. You will need to set a timer just like a VCR.0 -
ntl will be releasing their version of the telewest PVR at some point. I belive that it'll be before xmas but don't hold your breath (there's a lot of work to be done yet).
Might be worth waiting for that if you folks are not in a hurry- = I also recognise the Robins and beep for them = -0 -

This is an excellent machine to get for normal freeview (twin tuner) channels.
Highly recommended but not for cable as said above.0
