[QUOTE="bombonator, post: 28006, member: 10415"] Basically no, I did a quick test with my Hauppauge MCE150, which is a hardware card also. I usually only use the card for the svideo input but was curious about this so i tuned a few analogue channels via the antenna/cable input. I found that while recording from 1 of the sources it basically locks the card to that task - i couldnt get it to switch inputs to even watch the other once recording was going. Hardware cards have a mpeg2 encoder, i'd say this can only do 1 source at a time and why these simulatenous usage scenarios don't work. Software cards might be a different story, but 2 software recordings at the same time may tax the computer too much anyway - dunno though. BTW: FM Radio also does not function when recording from any of the inputs on the same card. [/QUOTE]
