We finally got Comcast DVR built-in cable box. The model is DCT6412 which support dual tuner and whole DVR package. I am so happy to have DVR back since our old replaytv unit couldn’t used anymore on our HDTV.

Why dual tuner? It is better than using splitter (old way) — even it works just fine with replaytv unit. The dual tuner lets you do two things at once: watch a live program while recording another, record two programs that are on at the same time — or even watch a previously recorded program while recording another. I doubt I will ever do that however it will allows me to use rewind and look miss the part of the show. This unit support hd or digital format which is really nice.

Also, I was able to nagivate the TV Guide via this unit pretty fast. Overall, it’s worth to have one. It’s only $10 a month including everything else in this unit.

Closed captioning (CC) works very well. Make sure you enable it thru its unit setting if you want to watch CC on HD format shows.
