Digital Video Recorders

Cable companies are migrating away from analog signals, mainly because it's possible to put several channels in the same bandwidth as a single analog signal. If they carry analog at all, it would most likely just be the basic service and there's no guarantee that it'll be available for any given length of time. If you want to see if there's analog available, just connect the cable directly into your TV's antenna jack and try tuning in some channels. If they're there, you still have analog. If not, you'll need another cable box for the TV. another answer: if the other cables are hooked up to the splitter that is feeding your digital cable then yes they will be active as long as all connectors are on behing your wall plates.

You will need an adapter such as the Elgato unit (See links below) to get the recording from the Sky box S Video sockets into the Mac.

It depends on the set you are watching on and your cable service.

If you have a cable service that sends in all channels, digital and analog, without the need for a set top box, then you can get all the channels available if your DVR and television both have digital tuners built into them.

If your DVR does not have a digital tuner, it will only be able to pick up the standard channels and not the "virtual" channels available through digital service (i.e. 8.1 or 17.4, etc.). If the DVR does have a digital tuner, but you are still watching on an old analog CRT television set, then you won't be able to watch the virtual channels while the DVR is recording, since the old TV won't pick up those in between channels.

So, the answer is, if you have a set with a digital tuner, and a DVR with a digital tuner, you will be able to watch any channel while recording any other channel, as long as they are not encoded. If one of the two does not have a digital tuner, then your watching selection will be limited to what it can pick up.
