Just want to say how suprised I was to find out that the s-video out running into my dvd-r/DVR(hard drive) with hdmi was anamorphic! This is a big deal for anyone going to burn a dvd of a movie they recorded in HD. My 211 from dish would not output anamorphic video. I always got letter boxed versions of the widescreen movies. So far I love my HR20. I have a couple of things scheduled to record, we will see how that goes. I also have enough audio video outputs, with the 211 (which to be fair is not a dvr) I did not. I don't think I saw that listed as a feature for the hr20, but it should be. And in bold print. It's a great feature. Don't know if the dish dvr's do that or not.
