Comcast Corp., the largest U.S. cable-TV provider, plans to start testing a video-recording service that lets customers store programs remotely on the company’s server computers, rather than on their set-top boxes.

Comcast will test the so-called cloud-based recording service in some markets late this year or early next year, Chief Technology Officer Tony Werner said in an interview at an industry event in Chicago today.
