[QUOTE="daemian, post: 949341, member: 135138"] Hello all, I have been using mediaportal for a short time now as a tv-server backup for an XBMC frontend. I have had pretty good luck thus far we getting things setup. I am going to hold off on the full run down of hardware, etc because I suspect my problem is a simple configuration issue. Basically I have 2 tuner cards (hauppauge colossus) both connected to direct tv set top boxes. If I launch XBMC from multiple PCs, I can watch tv on 2 different channels at the same time without issue (under manual control of the tv-server configuration I can see the two tv channels being watched and all is well). However, As soon as I schedule a recording, both tuners tune into that channel and show a status of idle. (attached screenshot). [ATTACH=full]118164[/ATTACH] My understanding from the documentation is that it should show recording, not idle. I am still waiting to see if the show does actually record (one going at the moment). I have created all of my channels once, and associated all of the channels to the both tuners. It seems like the server is trying to use both card to record the show. By the way, if I use on of my XBMC front ends to tune to that channel while recording, it works fine. This happens weather I schedule the recording through the XBMC front-end client or through the WebMediaPortal site. Any input is much appreciated. Thanks and keep up the great work on MP! -Mike [/QUOTE]
