Help needed connecting Freeview STB to Panasonic TV

[Matth]

As for the dual control, does either system have an option to switch to a second code - I've seen that on a few things, useful, but not particularly common.

Personally, I'd have suggested putting a dual or quad LNB on the dish and going Freesat HD or Freesat+ HD - actually neither system has much HD (Freesat 1 less than freeview), but freesat has a larger channel selection, and BBC Iplayer (broadband required).

I have read the instructions on how to connect a set top box to a dvd recorder. I have an HD ready Panasonic "Viera" Freeview TV and a "Combi" Panasonic recorder. At present, I cannot record one programme whilst watching another. If I connect an HD Freeview STB to my Combi, will I then be able to record one programme whilst watching another? I've been told this is possible, but I'm not convinced. Please help.
