Yes, analog signals get stored first , then Digital, the only problem I have is the digital (HD and SD) audio is not available on the audio out as the analog channels are I figure its available on the Digital PCIM jack

This is a digital broadcast receiver and will receive HD "over air" transmissions with a digital antenna, like TV in the old days. It will not work as a cable box.

I don't think so. It is an over the air receiver. I have an antenna on my roof that goes into the this box and out comes via HDMI into my big screen the TV broadcast.

I see it wrote Atsc/Ntsc/Qam Tuner when it scans for channels it lists them as Analog and Digital and each one has a signal strength listed - QAM is a Cable term for Cable Tuner

If you have a digital converter box I would say yes. Their tech support is excellent. Give them a call.

No you need the hdmi to VGA converter box it converts digital to analog. The one in question converts analog to digital

I did and it works great. If you want high Definition (HD) pctures you need HD cable and a HD subscription.

If you have analog cable, you will still receive analog signals after the conversion to digital broadcasting; the cable company will do the conversion. The Tivo box will work just fine. You will not be able to view HD programs without a HD cable box and a HD monitor.

Yes, it depends on the source. If the source can read the format and send the digital via optical, the D/A converter will work.

This device is for converting digital monitors & tv's for analog signal reception. If AFN is available in your area via NTSC (analog), then this will work.

No...if you have an older TV that doesn't have a digital tuner, you need a converter..but you don't get them from the cable company...you buy em...newer digital TVs will work with just a direct hook up.

This should. This unit takes a digital signal (HDMI) and converts to an analog signal outputting via RCA.

Hello Erwin, I'm not sure but as far as I know this cable (RCA) is analog and you are not going to be able to convert the signal from analog to digital signal (optical cable) without a converter. Hopefully this will help you. Later man.

Nope. Wish it would. If older reviews are still available there is one that suggests a very limited use for this cable. HDMI is a digital audio and video signal and needs a digital to analog conversion with synchronization of the audio to the video. A cable can't do that. It requires digital signal processing to do the conversion. The cheapest way to do that is buy a digital TV. There are converters, but they cost way more than the converter box to convert HDTV to NTSC analog.

No. Its meant to go from vga to hdmi. It takes the signal from anolog to digital. There are converters out there for what you want to do.

I assume you are referring to using your HDMI port on the TV? If that is the case, it will work if you buy one of these to convert the analog signal. Tmvel mini RCACVS 3 RCA Composite Video AV to HDMI Converter for TV/PC/PS3/Blue-Ray DVD

Yes, as long as the cable box has an HDMI port, this monitor will work as a TV.
