I am considering the purchase of a DVD recorder, but had a few questions. Specifically, I am considering recording the re-broadcasts of The Sopranos 4th season later this month.


If I switch my E86 to output 480i through the S-Video output, will shows that are in 16:9 still record with this aspect ratio onto the DVD? Secondly, do DVD recorders maintain DD 5.1 or do they convert the audio to 2-channel?


Thanks ahead of time!

I don't know if programs recorded from HBOHD will be in 16:9 and DD 5.1. I know that the STB has to be set to SD and fed through the S-Video to the DVD recorder. Please enlighten me.
