Can you record live TV?

Yes, as long as you have a tuner or cable box. You must have a tuner or cable box with Audio/Video outputs (the white/yellow/red outputs). I use my cable box to record to the unit (VHS or DVD) every day.

Only if your TV Has Audio and Video outputs. Most New TV's don't. You can record from DVR or Cable box outputs Video R and L audio. That's what I do. Some still have Svideo outputs use this first Peter better Video. Peter

No, unfortunately you have to keep the tv tuned to the channel you are recording. I found out while trying to record a program for class while watching the news. Luckily a classmate had also recorded the program so I could watch it.

I don't believe you can record tv shows or have a pause and rewind of live TV with the Apple TV as it relies on you getting the shows from the Internet. So to answer your question you will need the TIVO for the DVR features.

Yes you can . This unit is digital as well and you can use it for your tv turner. P.s. I have had a new issue. Tv channels and shows know about these recorders and they are putting show type of digital signal that wont allow you to record all show. It happen to me watching welcome back cotter. , Family ties, the cosby show but most tv shows are record-able.

You'll need a device that has RCA inputs to record the video. A VCR or a computer with a TV card that has a VIDEO IN connector.

If you are wondering if you can record directly from the tv, then the answer is yes.

Yes, but keep in mind that you have to supply your own usb hard drive and you will be limited to recording whatever channels the antenna can pick up. Also you will not be able to record one thing and watch another. You will watch what is being recorded. The box does a pretty good job recording. I can't tell the difference between something that's been recorded and live tv. The naming scheme is basic and doesn't use show names so you may have a hard time finding a particular show you recorded if you record a lot of stuff. But all in all this box enables free hd recording of your local channels.

Not real sure. But if your TV has HDMI input you might be able to use it to record to DVR. I'm not set up that way, so I'm not sure. Also check your TV for a video "line out" you could use this to record from.

Yes, you can record a channel and watch another channel, all you have to do it to return to your T.V. mode. and let the recorder continue on. You can also watch a recorded program from the recorder and record another program at the same time. Just read the manual and play with thesystem and you will become a pro after a short time. If everything else fails, just study the manual. Hope this helps, Doug

I have only used it to record TV shows that i have already recorded to my regular DVR machine. I dont know if it would be possible to record live feed TV...

Yes. Press play on your VCR and press record. Like any recorder it can record the signal being displayed on the TV it is connected to.

Yes you can if connected properly. We have our connected to Directv box and Directv box to tv. We record usually to the box and then when we watch the show, we record to disc.

Yes. Just connect it to the same indoor or outdoor HDTV antenna that the TV is connected to. If its tuner can pick up the signal, it will record it.

To record shows you will need a VCR or DVD recorder or a DVR. You plug the antenna into one of those and your recorder to the TV with RCA cables
