Hi
I have done some reading of old threads but i am not quite sure if i can do this but i can t be the only one who wants to i was hoping to use 2 500s as external tuners (much like firedtv) and control them threw MP via usb or Ethernet MP would be the front end and my pay cards would go in the 500s.

Is this possible?

thanks

There's a Dreambox TV plugin here:

New plugin : DreamDboxTV

And I've got a Dreambox exe tuner as part of my IR Server Suite that can be used to do the channel tuning, I don't know about using two at once, but it shouldn't be that hard.

Hope that helps,
