[QUOTE="Donald J. Michaud, post: 1153269, member: 155049"] OK. So if I want to use MP2 as my DVR, the only restriction I see is the Channel listing. Here is my workaround. I can have the channels match. When there is a "skip" or a channel not present in my line-up, I will simply need a filler or dummy channel. Using my example above (I have a channel 13, which is my local ABC affiliate WZZM. I do not have a channel 14, but I have channel 15, which is syndicated WGN out of Chicago), Channel 14 is required as a filler in order to keep the channel lineup in the same order as what my cable company provides. If I were to enter "14 ENTER", MP would simply go to a channel that has not signal and display/record a blue or black screen, or whatever happens when no signal is detected. As a label, I would give it a name of "NOT AVAILABLE" or "NO CHANNEL PRESENT" so that I know this channel does not exist if I were to go to by mistake. If my description above is correct, then I would like to move forward with MP2. [/QUOTE]
