Cable Forum - View Single Post - Connecting existing PVR to set-top box?

Dear All,

I have moved house recently, and used to get freeview via my aerial. I have a Humax PVR9200 which both did the freeview decoding and my hard-drive recording.

The area I've moved to has poor freeview reception. I get telewest phone and broadband anyway, so free TV from telewest seems like a good idea.

My question - can I connect my existing PVR/freeview decoder to whatever Telewest will provide? There doesn't seem to be an input to the PVR other than an aerial connection (there are 2 scarts, but I think these are both "output").

Thanks in advance for any help.
