It doesn't change SD so you'll still find yourself in situations where you
have no "HD" recordings going on and SD on digital stations ends up being
recorded before the SD analog.  But then, I don't care much if that
happens.  I just hit the "Full Zoom" and it looks full-screen and the
picture is much better than the analog tuner.
