This recorder is fantastic.I don't have digital cable just standard cable/w/high speed internet.The tv guide works great just read the set-up and set the parameters for your type of service.No more setting times and days just find the movie/show on the tv guide screen,push a button and you're done.Nice huge hard drive and excellent picture quality,maybe better than the original show.Dubbing is simple and precise after you play with it for a day or so.This thing even lists the title of the recorded movie in the title list screen automatically unlike others I've had where you have to guess by the recorded time.I love this recorder and would recommend to anybody.Very nice rich styling also,unlike some of the cheap looking recorders out there.I don't know why people knock the tv guide feature,I think it works great you can even sort programs by movie/sports/and more ...very nice. !!I almost forgot,when you use the a/b edit (very simple and fast)about 5 mins. to edit a half hour of comercials out of a 2 hr. movie.You can even pick the exact frame to start and stop if you use the pause botton and the fwd/rev arrow key.
