Hi There
I have recently purchased a Panasonic Viera TX-32LMD70A and now I am looking to put it together with a Panasonic DVD recorder with "twin tuners".

I believe I need the "twin tuners",so that I can watch one and record another.

I my input signal is via a Virginmedia cable facility.

Assuming you have some sort of Virgin STB, you need a V+ box.

There are no twin tuner Panasonic DVD recorders apart from the two satellite versions which are not compatible with cable.

A single tuner Panasonic DVD recorder would only allow you to watch and record the same channel, unless you have a suitable TV aerial as well?

Thanks for that Fred.

If I go round a different route then,can you recommend a good DVD recorder that will allow me to watch one programme and record another ?

Or would it be cheaper to get an HDMI cable and hook it up to my PC which has a DVD recorder.

No I do not have a suitable TV aerial.
