TWC DVR Question

I made the switch to cable on Saturday.  So far I have been pleased with one exception.  I can not seem to get any of the SD outputs (S-video, composite, RF) to work.  I was reading in the manual that I have to turn the box off and push guide and info sumultaniously to set the output displays, but that does absolutely nothing.  Has anyone been able to use any SD outputs with the TWC DVR?

I want to use these other outputs so I can feed the signal to my HTPC and/or a second TV.

Thanks,
pico

To use the SD outputs, you must first put the box into SD mode, but then the HD does not work. You cannot have both at the same time.

You were on the right track with the info and guide button. That will put you into SD mode. The display will say SD. During SD mode, I was able to get RF and S-video, but not the composite. You can use two of the component as the composite, but I forget which two.

I flip mine to SD every once and a while to copy a recorded program to a VCR.
