| Re: Won't Fly I'm hip to this idea. You already can't record VOD, but that's okay with me. Anything that reduces the number of devices in my living room is a good thing.
Of course, if they still stick me with the bulk of a set-top box I won't be happy. I realize some sort of module will be needed, but please make it small.

| Re: Won't Fly said by yock  :I'm hip to this idea. You already can't record VOD Hmmm...I record VOD all the time, but not with Comcast's DVR. TiVo and a programmable remote with macro capability makes it a one-button affair.  Then burn to DVD on the same box. Life is good. | |

Yeah, I'm poor =) I use TWC's DVR because I don't have the cash for a Tivo.

Vista, CA | You can't record VOD with the COX DVR. Maybe with Tivo, but not with the cox DVR. | |

How do you expect to be able to use the dvr service without the cable box? Does your tv do video on demand / interactive tv over cable by itself? | |

Its most likely just an on demand channel. that is the point, to not need to give out new boxes, instead use the same digital ones. | |
