It isn't SD vs. HD, it is analog vs. digital.  There are digital SD
channels as well as digital HD channels (which are all digital).  You
cannot set the recording quality on any digital channels, because
they're recorded 'as-is', not locally encoded.

Generally any channels 100 and up are digital, SD or HD.  And some
cable systems use ADS - Analog-Digital Simulcast - so even low number
channels, which are normally analog, may be mapped to a digital
version on cable STBs and devices using CableCARD.

So if you don't have the option to select the recording quality,
you're getting the channel digitally.
