Hi, I've just set up MediaPortal 1. I have a SiliconDust HD Homerun Dual Card, having 2 tuners. When I try to record 2 tv shows at the same time only one will record. Windows 8 is my OS. What can I do to record two shows at once?

    you should be able to run 2 or more HDHR tuners at the same time. I have 3 HDHR tuners on my Win7-x64 system and can record 3 shows at the same time. I don't have win8 so I'm not sure if there are any win8 specific details.

    When you setup your tuners do you see both HDHR tuners in TV Servers and scanned both tuners? see wiki
    http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_...uration/TV-Server_Configuration/02_TV_Servers

    If you look at TV Channels > Mapping and check both HDHR tuners, are the channel mapped to both HDHR tuners, see wiki
    http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_...Server_Configuration/03_TV_Channels/2_Mapping

    Are you using ATSC (over the air with antenna) or QAM basic cable unencrypted? It would help if you uploaded your tv.log and error.log files. In win7 the log files are in the following, not sure where they are located in win8.
    C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\log

    MP1 MP2 How to get MP2 to work with Hauppauge WinTV 1850 TV card DE
    MP2 uses the same TV engine as MP1, so it must work also with MP2, you just need to select TVE3 and not TVE3.5 in the installer. MP2 also supports a 3rd TV engine TVMosaic, but this is configured web-based and I can not tell you, if this works with your hardware.

    MP1 MP2 Picture corruption when transferring files to server - possible networking issue DE
    I'm not sure what the issue was, but I decided to try a different way of solving the problem. My server has a 2.5Gbps port and the 10Gbps card I added, so I've connected the HD Homerun directly to the 2.5G port, and its solved the problem, I can now copy large multiple files to the server and not suffer with picture issues. There is...
