Re: Confused - Comcast Digital Cable

On some cable boxes (my scientific atlanta 4200) the audio output from the cable out is monaural. This is stated in their online manual. The audio out left and right is stereo. So, in order for me to record in stereo, I needed to do svideo and audio connections. So, I can't say whether I would have gotten as good a picture using coax out from box - I never tried it because I wanted stereo recordings.
