If you split before the cable box, then all channels that onyl work with the
cable box, like all channels above 100(digital), and all the HD stations
will not be recordable...
The VCR can only record channels it can tune into, which will only be the
unscambled channels in the 2-99 range.
Same with the PIP function on your tv...
For full functionality, you'll need another cable box, a non-HD version,
split the cable b4 either box, and then run the regualr digital cable box
into the vcr, then onto the receiver, or tv...
