Time to make the leap into the 20th century, I think !!!! (then you can worry about catching up with the 21st century later on ....)

    yeah right, I was hoping that no one would notice my post. :D
    But you're right, it's time to make some changes.
    The point is that I have to change quite a lot: my system has an additional tv card to be able to connect through svideo->scart adapter to a tube tv.
    I'm also considering to install a dedicated server and just a client near the tv.

    1 analogue (couldn't choose a smaller font), so am I the outcast now? :)

    How do you look at yourself in the mirror every day with only one analogue tuner :D

    I have 3 tuners. A strange mix of 1 DVB-T, 1 DVB-S, and 1 DVB-S2, but it works a treat!

    I wish I had another DVB-S2 tuner though.... Can I have the one you don't need please Jay_UK ;)

    Just one in the TV server, though I wish I could add more (currently not possible, we would have to lay another cable for that).

    I do not understand how to configure MediaPortal to work with multiple DVB-T tuner? Does the cable from the antenna must go on both cards? I have two DVB-T card in the computer, but for now I set only one. I did not know to set two. How to set up channels on two DVB-T card? I can not find instructions anywhere for this problem. Thank you.

    That depends on your card. If you have two cards then each will need its own feed

    It is no different to setting up one.
    You can save yourself a little time though and if you only scan on one tuner you can just use the mapping screen (Mapping - MediaPortal Wiki) to map the channels picked up on one card to the other
