Set-Top Boxes. Some models of TV receivers or Digital Video Recorders (DVR) may not be able to receive all of the channels offered on our system. Channel compatibility problems may occur if equipment such as TVs and DVRs are connected directly to the cable system. Use of a set-top box typically resolves these problems. Channel compatibility problems associated with the reception of programming that is not scrambled or encrypted programming can be resolved by using a simple converter device without descrambling or decryption capabilities. We rent set-top boxes, and CableCARD set-top boxes may be available for purchase from retail outlets in some areas. If your Service is received through a set-top box, you may not be able to use special features and functions on TVs and DVRs. For example, some set-top boxes may not be compatible with TV or DVR features that allow you to view a program on one channel while simultaneously recording a program on another channel; record two or more consecutive programs that appear on different channels; or use advanced picture generation and display features such as "Picture-in-Picture."
