(OK, I know that it's not
totally off when recording, but I'm sure only the electronics that's
needed for recording is powered on)
really? Is this just because your TV doesn't display anything in this
mode or do you know something about the hardware/firmware design?
I don't know anything about the hardware/firmware, but the fan(s) turn
off, the current draw drops, there is no signal output on the video or
audio outputs, all LEDs (except the Record LED) turn off. So, I conclude
only the embedded computer and the tuner (or in the case of two programs
recording, tuners) are on during recording, unless I turn the unit on to
watch TV (or a recorded program).
