am i reading this correct that this doesn't have a digital tuner inside where it will convert analog signal to digital?

There are no analog signals broadcast terrestrially in the US since Feb 2009. Hence, there's no need for an analog tuner. If you don't believe me, fire up you're old VCR and try to tune something in...

Over the air digital TV only or online streaming media like YouTube. You can record while you watch anything else...... Where would you find analog TV broadcast signals these days anyways? ;-)

no it does not. the tuner in the unit is an analog tuner. i have a digital adapter from the cable company that converts the signal so i can record a cable channel. the only drawback is you can only record the channel the adapter is currently tuned into and for any further recording you have to manually change the tuner to another channel.

Sadly no it does not, but if your computer does support digital or analog i would highly recommend it

If your tv is digital,you do not need a digital to analog converter box. An analog tv requires that converter box to work with any antenna.

This does NOT have an internal Tuner. You need to feed programs to it through a Cable Box or Digital Tuner of some kind.

No, this unit is NOT digital, HOWEVER it can pick up analog trunking systems. The radio unit itself IS digital this just means it has buttons on it like a calculater would, and it has a digital led display. I hope this helped

Not that I have found. I still have an old copy of the Pinnacle software that came with an analog to digital converter that I use for this; I am quite sure this Sony Suite 13 does not have that function. If I get proven wrong, please let me know.

No, this only converts analog to digital. There is a digital to analog version that should work though.

I believe this device is only designed to work with an antenna. It converts an analog signal to a digital signal.

They make digital to analog converters but I haven't seen one that converts analog to digital yet.

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.

The function of this converter is to make a digital signal into an analog signal. We no longer have this converter because we have digital TVs now. I do not believe we used the unit as a tuner. I believe we did the channel Tunis through the TV.

Yes. It has it's own built in digital tuner. All you need is a direct feed from a antenna or cable. However, most providers are shifting over to digital signals that require their decoder box in order to view those channels. So your available channels are limited to channels that have not been converted by the cable or satellite company yet. Antenna reception will pick up any broadcast digital signal. Hope that helps.

If you have an analog TV then you will need a converter. This antenna picks up digital signals and requires a TV with a digital tuner or a digital to analog converter.

The local channels have all gone to digital, and if you have a digital tv, this antenna picks up the local stations. It will NOT convert an older tv (analog) to a digital. You still need a digital converter for that.

No this is not a digital to analog conversion cable. It is digital to digital toslink cable and it uses light and not electrical pulses for transmission.

Pretty much all modern TVs have built-in turners now, including digital channel tuners. For digital reception you just need to get a digital rabbit ear style receiver. Otherwise with cable you just need to plug in the cable without a box.
