Another question if I may.

When you record something of an HD channel (so BBC HD by default at the moment) does it record at the settings that you have set up at the time, or does it record in whatever the native format is and then up/down scale it for play back?

Not sure that's particularly clear so I'll give an example. I've made a 10 minute recording from BBC HD because I want to try the different settings (720 and 1080) on the same bit of footage. Is that recording now locked at 720 (my setting when I recorded it) or will changing my settings before playback have the same effect as it wold on live tv?
