[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1177231, member: 141969"] I have two quad-tuner cards in my HTPC, and when I rescan (typically when the channel line-up changes), I usually rescan each tuner separately. The reason for this is to confirm that all of the tuners are still working! I experienced a power cut at my location a few months ago, when the HTPC was in the middle of performing a recording. The power cut seems to have damaged the tuner that was in use, and it no longer works. :cry: If I had not rescanned each tuner, I might not have noticed. :( I believe that if TV Server fails to tune a channel using one tuner, it will try another tuner, so you might not notice a problem until such time as there are no more tuners available, at which point the programme would fail to record. :( -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
