Re: what does a DVD recorder need for connection to Virginmedia cable TV?

Thanks or your prompt replies. My daughter does not want a V+ box because as alone parent with children she is unable to afford it.
The main reason for her wanting a DVDrecorder is so that she can record programs that the children are unable to see at the time they are shown.
Then they can watch them on their own DVD player/TV in their room while Mum can watch her programes.
In this day of modern technology I am surprised that this can't be done, or is Virgin making it difficult to ensure people use there V+ box.
Earlier in this forum a chap was asking a similar question re "how to connect the wharfdale DVD/HD digital recorder with freeview, to his Virginmedia cable TV" and people were giving him answers. It did seem very complicated.
But it was the recorder that I was considering buying for my daughter.
Now I am unsure what to do as it was meant to be a Xmas present for the family. As a pensioner I do not want to waste my money if it will not work.
