Record television programs while watching another channel on my digital NTL box?

I recently upgraded my NTL box from anolog to digital then it can not record TV programs while watching another TV channel. You can only record what I see. I used to be able to see or record channels 1-5, or in my video and TV and I saw a different channel in my anolog NTL box. Does anyone have a solution that will let me view channels recored or 1.5, and I can see other digital channels on my machine. It is why my brother can tune channels on the TV and video 5.1, to enable recording, without the need for a separate box or a separate antanna.

You can not do at this time, but there are changes in the pipeline, so its ntl: box will be high definition, two tuners, and many more!

digital and anolog TV and Boxes?

I was wandering about digital and anolog things i heard that soon anolog will not be available so we can not watch tv if its anolog. I also want to know about digital set top box…wat i want to know is when will anolog tv will not be available (if its true)? and if i get a digital set top box and i can connect it to my laptop can i watch digital tv on it?

Thank you…

(This answer assumes you are in the US)

What is happening is the US is changing from an analog TV broadcast system to a digital one.

This does not mean that you need a new TV. Digital TV signals can be converted to analog ones to make them compatible with older TVs.

If you get your TV signals over the air (OTA), you would need to get a converter box for your old TV. Starting in Jan 2008 the government will have a coupon program that will let each household buy a couple of them for about $20 each. Most analog OTA signals will be shut off after 2/17/09.

If you get your TV signals by satellite, these already use digital signals. The receivers contain a converter.

Cable companies are required to maintain analog service until at least 2012.

>if i get a digital set top box and i can connect it to my laptop can i watch digital tv on it

Well, yes and no. If you get TV signals OTA or from a cable system that uses something called “unencrypted QAM”, you can buy a digital USB tuner that will let you use your laptop as a TV.

Other than that, there are USB attachments that will let you see analog signals from a converter on your laptop, but watching non OTA/QAM digital signals directly will probably not be possible. This is not a technical limitation. It’s because of copy protection/DRM/HDCP.

Cheat Sheet
————————————–…
Old type OTA TV signals = NTSC = “Analog TV”

New type OTA TV signals = ATSC = “Digital TV” = DTV

Digital signals used on some cable systems = QAM

OTA = “Over the Air” = stuff you get through your TV antenna

“CECB” = government speak for TV converter boxes that qualify for their coupon program. Stands for “Coupon-Eligible Converter Box”

Analog Digital
analog, digital?

could anyone explain to me, in simple terms, what in $*%^ these terms mean? and what is the deal with everything boiling down to numbers (ala “The Matrix”)? i am not dumb, but i sure as heck don’t have a mind for math and i have never heard an explanation for these things that i could comprehend. no sarcastic (i.e. “because you’re blonde”) answers, please
Okay – I guess I didn’t even ASK the question very clearly. Babloo hits on what I don’t understand. I have had the 1 and 0 thing (attempted to be) explained to me. I just CANnot understand how 2 numbers are translated into all that information.

Analog generally refers to mechanisms that are continuous. Old watches and clocks for example are analog because their internal parts and hands are continuously moving.

Digital generally refers to mechanisms that are discrete. What is referred to as digital clocks or watches change once a second.

Also, the term digital can refer to they way information is packaged. Within a computer, information is packaged digitally – i.e specific, unique, numbers are assigned to represent different pieces of information.

[edit - in response to "additional information"]

Analog signals are converted to digital using a sampling technique. A device takes a measurement of an analog signal a certain number of times a second – say 65000. Each time the signal is sampled, a number is generated and can then be stored digitally.

Sleep Apnea – Jet Lag and Changing Time Zones

Traveling between one country to another can disturb your body clock as it involves crossing from one Time Zone to another. The time difference may mean gaining or losing a day depending on the direction you are heading. This usually happens when the distance you need to travel is very big like moving from one continent to another or from one hemisphere to another.

Contrary to what most people believe, jet lag is not caused by the time it takes you to reach your destination but the distance between time zones that you need to travel. For example, although the amount of time needed to travel between Los Angeles and New York is only five hours, a person can still go through symptoms of jet lag when they cross the Central and Mountain Time Zones. Crossing Russia, which has eleven time zones, for example, can cause quite a jet lag. In Alaska, on the other hand, the jet lag is caused by the small amount of daylight which make it difficult for new arrivals to adjust.

Jet lag generally causes dehydration as well as appetite loss and disorientation. Others may feel groggy, fatigued and nauseous. Some even get headaches, vomiting and sinus irritation. Other symptoms include stomach problems, irritability and depression. Of course, the effects of jet lag may vary from one person to another.

The intensity of a jet lag also differs from one person to another. Some people can recover from jet lags more quickly than others. Some can take as long as a week to get a hold of the new time zone that they are in. Also, because of high levels estrogen, a hormone that is naturally occurring in women, women tend to be more affected by jet lag as this hormone is affected by any disruption in one’s sleeping and waking hours.

A person’s physical condition can also determine his ability to cope with jet lag. Sleeping well, having a good diet and exercising regularly can make a person more able to adjust to the effects of jet lag. Sleeping during the flight can make it easier for a person to adjust to the changes in time zone as long as he doesn’t sleep for many hours after he has reached his destination. Doing so can make him feel disoriented, In fact, some people are given sedatives in order to sleep through the flight and feel refreshed the moment they leave the plane.

Frequent travelers are also less affected by jet lag. People who seldom travel have a higher risk of acquiring jet lag because their bodies are not used to the changes in time zone. For this reason, people who have a lot of business trips tend to be less affected by this syndrome even though they tend to take flights at odd hours. Aside from that, the intensity of the effects brought by jet lag also varies from one person to another. Thus, there may be some people who are experiencing intense jet lag while others may experience subtle symptoms.
