you can download a pdf manual for the whole range from their website if you want to check something
Thanks for the reply. Strangely, the Sony website has two features on it's comparison of the current PVR range, "Pause Live TV" and "Live TV Pause"! Apparently the 870 has the latter, but not the former. Go figure....

I've already downloaded the PDF manual, but it doesn't really answer the questions I asked, hence my posting here.

Cheers

Mark.
