HDD/DVD recorder question

[mick_dundee]

Bought myself a new gadget, after RTFMing I can see that I can record and play at the same time, wondering if I can record and record at the same time to 2 different media, ie HD and DVD?

If all else fails Mick - Read the bloody instruction manual!

By the way, I just saw something like this down at ALDI for $399.

if the device you have can record and playback at the same time, then it must have 2 tuners inside (no not tuna)
if it has 2 tuners this means you can record 2 programs at the same time, however you must be watching one of them when recording it.

1 tuner is taken up recording show A and the other is taken up recording and playing show B

same as foxtel IQ. But IQ has 3 tuners. 1 you cant use because it is dedicated to on demand. the other 2 are for you to use as i mentioned above.

+1 need the second tuner to record 2. some of the top models offer this
