[QUOTE="4Fred, post: 1123458, member: 16968"] First off, I love my MePo! I use it mostly for Live TV but also Moving Pictures TV-Series Online Videos and some Rockstar for Spotify, it all works so good! I have rapid channel changes on Live TV, recordings are never missed and my EPG is full of correct info and there are beautiful channel logos to go with it. If I'm at my GFs place and want to watch something from home I just use MPextended trough the web or Ampdroid on my phone. For me MePo is pure sunshine :) Now to the "problem" I need to switch DVB from DVB-C to DVB-S(2). Today my tv tuner is network based, this greatly simplifies many things. Placement of tv-server and the possibility to run a virtual machine as a tv server, running different version of tv-server on different machine for testing and less cabling and so on and so on, this is something I really do not want to live without. Using my cable provider I get all channels from one source, so with dual tuners I can record one channel and watch another at the same time without limitation. Going with DVB-S I will have to have two satellite dishes and this requirement comes from the fact that I will have to have the flat version of dish, Selfsat (or equivalent) and the reason is that I will have to get programing from two different satellites. I need to be able to record one program and watch another at the same time without limitation, thus I need two heads on each dish making it a total of four cables connected to my Sat>IP (or whatever I need) from two different sources - will this be a problem? So... what do I need and have I understood everything correctly? I know there are tons of other solutions out there and I guess they all work fine but I really love MePo and would love to stick with it. Please help! [/QUOTE]
