My Recorder 2 is set up in line with my DVD player/recorder as my television doesn't have video out. I think I get how to record a single program. However, suppose I wanted to set up a timer recording to record one program on one channel and then the next one on a different channel. I don't see how to do that. Is it even possible?
Thanks,

Yes, and I mentioned VCRs because they can schedule different channels at different times. That's how I use my N1. |

Sorry I didn't understand your answer. Thanks for the clarification!

I understood your question--the reason I asked if you had a digital cable box was that there's a feature (with Comcast anyway) where the box will automatically change to the channel you want for the show you designate--this way you can accomplish what you're trying to do. Otherwise, I don't think it'd be possible. |

Okay, maybe my question wasn't clear. What I want to do is the same thing I can do on my DVD recorder or can be done on a VCR. I want to set the recorder, for example to record on program at 8p on channel 3 and one at 9 on channel 10 and one at 10 on channel 12. I don't understand how to do that.
My set up is broadcast only. I have set it up according to the directions in the online version of the manual:
If you don't have cable or satellite TV, you
can record from broadcast TV by plugging the video out from a
VCR into the A/V In on the Recorder 2, then plugging the A/V Out
from the Recorder 2 into the Video In on the TV.
Substitute DVD recorder for VCR and you've got how I set things up. It works fine for a single recording where I have the DVD recorder set for the channel I want to record. However, this wouldn't work for succesive unattended recordings on different channels. |

If you don't have a more advanced solution, you can use a plain-ol' VCR. |

Do you by any chance have digital cable which normally includes a cable box? |
