Default PVR's : 'Record to VCR Scart' feature?

You can set the timer on my Pace Twin to send the timer selected programme
direct to the VCR scart instead of the hard disc - so you can record
Freeview straight onto a DVD recorder etc. Do any of the other PVR boxes do
this (Humax, Fusion or Thomson)?

You can't do it on the Fusion and I'm pretty sure you can't on the Thompson
or Humax.

Yes :-) You want the Freeview signal directed straight to a recording
source and maybe if recording two programmes change channels etc.

Phil: Better to send the RGB output to the DVD recorder (enroute to the TV)
and forgetthe lower quality YC or composite output unless using it to
relay the signal around the house.

Then you can use the 2nd tuner to record to hard disc internally, whilst
using tuner 1 to feed the DVD recorder simultaneously with a different
programme.
