[QUOTE="Bagal, post: 416621, member: 27764"] The priority setting in the management console is the one you want. [LIST=1] [*]Start the management console [*]Go to 'recorder/tuners' under administration [*]Give the htpc recorder/tuner a priority of 1 [*]Give the server recorder/tuner a priority of 2 [*]Save your changes [*]Now go to 'settings' under administration [*]In the 'Recording conflicts' section, make sure the setting 'Swap recorder/tuner priority for recordings to avoid conflicts with live TV' is checked (which is the default option anyway) [*]Save your changes [/LIST] This should now mean that the following will happen: [LIST] [*]You watch live tv - the htpc is used as it has a higher priority [*]A recording starts - the server is used as the priorities are swapped around, hence the server has a higher priority [/LIST] You'll obviously need to double check this as my system is configured differently, but I'm pretty certain this is correct.
