I Just got done with putting my STB (Samsung smt-3260) in the diagnostic 
mode. It allows you to check each channel.. My report is locals and a 
few shopping channels report as copy freely,the rest are reported as 
copy once,even the test bar channel is copy once..... I don't know if 
the HDPVR-P will handle copy once.. If I understand copy once 
correctly,you should be able to record to a PC and play your recording 
on that PC only...I could live with that...

I am located in Northern NY, north of Albany using Time Warner...
