[QUOTE="skoka123, post: 428260, member: 86957"] Ah! I wish I afford the hardware required for it. Though I have two legal subscriptions for Satellite TV, MP needs to have a hardware CAM etc which is not easily available in India. Importing it is very expensive. OK. Now that it is almost confirmed that it is not possible to have a card dedicated for Live TV, I have few questions. 1) Is there a one key press shortcut to stop the current recording and watch live TV? 2) Is there a way to proactively indicate the user that when watching live TV that MP will take over the tuner for Recording? If so, can the user then click a cancel button to cancel the recording? [B]Another option/approach.[/B] Suppose, I have two MP Server Installations LTV (for Live TV) and RTV(For Recorded TV).
