Default Dual DVB-S tuners with two x firedtv boxes, two smartcards will it work?

Hey,

I'm pretty sure it can be done but I already have one firedtv dvb-s2 box with smartcard for watching encrypted sat channels.

Through my provider I can get an additional decoder and smartcard package for like $15 per month so i was thinking about getting that and adding another firedtv box and then I should in theory have dual tuning on my sat channels where i can watch one, record another, or record two at onece?

Would be running with tv server for this.

Also can someone please explain how i have to cable it? I found where you can buy a coax splitter to split cable into two.. Will this work or will I have to run a separate coax from sat dish to second firedtv box?

Thanks!
