Do HD cable TV boxes (TWC) also work on regular TVs? |
|
|
I am going to buy an HDTV soon, but was wondering if the HDTV cable boxes
from TWC also worked with regular SDTV if I ever needed to connect it to
one for whatever reason. Of course I'm not talking about the HD channels,
but the all the other ones. I'm with TWC in NY. Thanks to anyone that has
info.

Yes, they have downconverted SD outputs. |

It should work, even for the HD stations. All the channels you get, |
including the HD ones, will be downconverted to SD using the
composite, SVID and possibly the RF outs. Gary E
