Thanks for your reply. It makes me feel hopeful but I am confused by the previous answers. Obviously it can be done but whether we are capable of setting it up I am not sure! In the past we could always record a different prog on a VCR whilst we watched another one. So I can't see why this can't be done jsy as easily with virginmedia TV although I think I understand the explanations given previously.
At the moment I have another problem.
I am struggling to set up a freeview box that I have been given as a present.
I have set it up with my TV and it works OK . My TV tunes into all the channels.
But my DVD analogue recorder is not receiving the normal TV channels or the freeview, to record them. When I tried to record a program tonight I just had fuzzy lines recorded.
So now I have to try and sort this out as well.
