The Conversion Preview

Analog to Digital TV Converter Boxes?

In Feb. 2009 when TV signals go all digital and we no longer can use our TVs with standard inputs and tuners without a digital-to-analog converter box, how do these devices work as far as multiple devices?

The common converter boxes (the cheap ones eligible for the $40 off coupons starting in Jan 08) can only tune into one channel at a time.

If you wanted to record one channel on your old VCR while watching another “live” channel, you would need two converter boxes.

You can purchase DVD recorders (starting at $140 at Walmart) that include an ATSC digital tuner. A more flexible setup would be to use one of these as your main recording device, and run a converter box through your old VCR and into your TV. This would give you the ability to either record one channel while watching another, or recording two channels at the same time.

For around $200 (at Walmart) you can buy a DVD recorder with ATSC tuner that uses DVD-RAM disks. These can function like a (very) small DVR. You can record one program while “chasing” that program, like you can with a TIVO, or watch another program that was previously recorded on the DVD while recording another onto the same disk.

Starting at about $238 (at Walmart) you can buy a DVD/hard drive recorder with an ATSC tuner, which can record a lot of TV.

(In the first & last examples, I would recommend spending a bit more, $200 & $300, for models with better reviews, for discussions on different models see last link)
