[QUOTE="mcraenz, post: 1012411, member: 54136"] As kiwijunglist said, this is all doable, best to use a central server although the server could also be one of the clients too. For Freeview (HD) you need 3 DVB-T Tuners if you want to be able to record/watch EVERY Freeview channel at once. Freeview Satellite only has 2 MUXs so for that you'd need 2x DVB-S tuners. But since your in Tauranga I assume you'll be going with Freeview HD. S ky is possible. I've just finished setting it up again on my HTPC with MediaPortal. I have a Quad DVB-S2 tuner card in my sever. Tested recording 16 sk y channels at once! PM me on geekzone if you want more info or a hand setting this up. Although we're only talking about about using a legitimate subscription and not talking about piracy in any way. Some of the components used to achieve this are also used in other countries for piracy so we can't talk about these components in this forum. It will take a bit of setting up for what you want but once it's up and running - a) it's rock solid, b) the functionality is unrivaled. Every one of your clients can watch any channel independently of each other. Every client can see the same guide and accesses all the same recordings. Make sure you get clear on the video card (de-interlacing) requirements for Freeview HD before you purchase anything. [/QUOTE]
