record one program on the built-in digital video recorder (DVR) while watch-
ing the other.

TV does not have picture-in-picture (PIP) capability.

definition TV, record TV programs without a VCR, and watch two programs at
the same time.

enjoy the features of the 8000HD and change the way you watch TV!
