Its not clear what you are trying to do. If you want to record at lower quality is there not an SD version broadcast of what you want to record? Are you saying everything in USA is only broadcast in HD! On the other hand if you want to record HD but cannot view it at the moment NPVR with a video card have the ability to upscale or downscale the output resolution to screen. I have a 1360 X 780 TV which obviously wont display HD but my NPVR computer runs at native resolution so both a SD or HD recording would both be displayed at 1360 X 780.
