Could it possibly store the AFD info along with the programme title and things when you start recording?

What a lot of questions!
It uses a variation on MPEG2. It doesn't just look at the settings at the start of a recording as it switches aspect correctly during ad breaks for example.

I think they will just do line 23 (the second half of the line is part of the active picture anyway), as it is simple for them to do.

Ozsat may know more?
