Thanks James – presumably no reason why this shouldn’t also be true for my
existing netgem.

Adrian,
see my earlier message in Phil's thread. although we haven't verified this by
trying it, I believe that we will be able to record AD using the Logik
set-top-box connected to our HD/DVD recorder via a scart cable, this is the
same setup you would use for recording to a VCR via Virgin media or sky. So as
long as your recorder has two scart sockets and can record from an external
source (satellite/cable/freeview), which you should be able to check in the
manual) you might well be OK with a recorder and the Logik LDRV3.

Subject: [access-uk] recording freeview with AD
Hi – picking up on the recent thread around AD on freeview can anyone
comment on whether the AD carried by enabled freeview receivers can be recorded
using a digital video recorder (DVR). As I understand it the DVR units have
their own built-in freeview receiver so I would assume that it is from this
that the recording is taken and that unless the DVR itself is AD enabled the AD
won’t be recorded.
The recent usability survey of DVRs undertaken by ricability didn’t
include any DVRs with AD and RNIB don’t highlight any on TVHelp.org.uk so I
assume there aren’t currently any.
