Which? The DVD I have now (will that make it record?) or the DVD I will be purchasing? Which one Jess?
David In Indy:
Ask Dana why they are suddenly doing this Jess. Why? It used to be you could buy one of these machines, screw in the cable cord and the damn thing worked! It was simple. Now, they have all these different things, and half of them don't even have a tv tuner in them! I don't get it. Do most people have cable boxes all of a sudden? I mean, what's the deal here? I don't understand it. Even a couple of years ago when I bought this DVD recorder that just recently broke, I didn't even have to pay attention to anything like that. I just saw it, bought it, brought it home and attached it. They've just suddenly started doing this within the past couple of years. Why are they doing it? ???
What's an RF modulater?
injest:
it is for the new one,
I think it is because of the switch next year from analog to digital....you know about that, right?? when they are gonna stop broadcasting like they used to and going all digital so you need that little box. I suspect that in a couple of years everything will have the tuners built back in again..

I know about the switch but I was told I didn't need a box. Because I have a HD tv and the cable screws into the back of things (TV, DVD, etc). So everyone is getting a box now, and that's why they are making DVDs without a tuner? That doesn't make much sense, does it?
I feel like such a dingbat! :laugh:
It used to be I had the upper edge 20 years ago when VCRs were new. Everyone called me to come over and hook them up because I was so good at it. But now... :-\
