Analog switch off.

[anotheoldgit]

When the analog signal is switched off, will I still be able to view anything that was recorded from an analog source?

[deggers316]

yes it will be on your recorder (tape or hardrive)

[anotheoldgit]

Thanks deggers so you are saying it will be in digital on my hardrive, tape or removable disc

if you've recorded sometihing on to a tape, say, and you've got a VHS player that plays it now, it will still be able to do so.

No. Not exactly... (it will be digital on a hard drive, analogue on a video) but that's totally irrelevant.

Your recorder of any sort is connected to your TV by a cable, it does not rely on a radio transmission of any sort, a signal being switched off at a transmitter miles from your house isn't going to effect devices connected by a cable in your front room any more than it will effect your ketttle!

Thanks also jno and Chuck for your answers, they have put my mind at rest, I feared I would loose some valuable recordings.
