[QUOTE="Topher5000, post: 60487, member: 19543"] With the 500MCE, you can record from the satellite & watch something different from the antenna or vice versa, all through your htpc, but you can't record one satellite channel & watch a different sat channel, because the sat stb has only one tuner. You'd need another stb to do that. Marcusb is right about the antenna splitter. That way, you could record one channel from the antenna & watch another antenna channel, but directly from the antenna to your TV. He's also right about the 6150 mobo. Maybe the on-board video will work okay & you won't need a video card. If you get stutters or freezing, you can always add a video card & disable the on-board video, keeping your 512mb of RAM.
