A question re: recording on new generation TVs.

[Big Chris]

I've read that the new Samsung D8000 (and other new TVs) have the ability to just connect up a hard drive to record straight from the TV. My question is how many channels can you record at once?

Let's take the D8000 for example.

Apologies if the review of the D8000 mentions this. I've trawled it but it's either not there or I've missed it.

Apparently only one, with that TV at least. http://www.which.co.uk/technology/tv-and-dvd/reviews-ns/samsung-d8000-series/

Well that seems a bit lame. Twin tuners should mean you can record one program while watching another. Let's hope the 2012 model year TVs rectify this problem.
