[QUOTE="Taipan, post: 34884, member: 11681"] I think you mean video "encoder"? But, the DVB-T side doesn't require a video encoder, since it is already in MPEG2 format. So, I don't see why it would not be possible to view/record from the DVB side, while viewing/recording from the analog side at the same time - unless there is an issue with the 2 "devices" sharing the same PCI interface. Thinking about it some more, as there is only one tuner, I guess the best you could do is view/record from the DVB-T section using the tuner, while you viewed/recorded from the analog input (the S-Video/composite input) using the MPEG2 encoder. But, then there is still the issue of the shared PCI interface..... So, I guess you are right, but not because of the one MPEG2 encoder, but because there is only one tuner front-end, and because of the shared PCI bus?
