Hi there, iv got the latest version of MediaPortal running on an XP Pro Machine running XP3, im using a dual tuner Nova-T-500 PCI Card.

Most things work fine, apart from MediaPortal being a bit buggy, but one of the main problems is the fact that I cannot seem to get MediaPortal to work in Dual tuner mode (IE Record one channel whilst watching another).

This is defenatly not my card as it works fine with WINTV, iv tested it, but when I try and get it working in MediaPortal, it simply will NOT let me watch another channel if I am already recording one. It says (All Tuners are busy) and will just reload the channel that its recording.

Iv read on the web that this is a common problem with MediaPortal, is there anyway around this?
