[QUOTE="Muscats, post: 1217941, member: 133988"] Hi, thanks for responding so quickly We are currently recording up to 8 channels simultaneously, (my wife just checked our current recording schedule and we have 8 simultaneous scheduled this evening) Australian TV tends to run quality TV competitively i.e. the various free to air providers line up quality shows in the same time slot, so there is a requirement to record multiple channels at the same time. The commercially available domestic VAST set top boxes are limited to record one watch one, at best, and there is no way to get them into Mediaportal I think that the pairing you describe is the case when you purchase a set top box with the cam and card installed, however, when you purchase a card and cam combo without the hardware as in here [URL='https://www.kristalelectronics.com/satellite-products/satellite-accessories/ci-cams/smit-8-service-vast-irdeto-smartcard-and-ci-cam.html']SMIT 8 Service VAST Irdeto Smartcard and CI cam - CI Cams - Satellite Accessories - Satellite Products[/URL] which suggests using it with one of these [URL='https://www.kristalelectronics.com/other-products/pro-broadcast-equipment/integrated-receiver-decoders/pbi-dcp3100pt-dvbt-hd-mpeg4-ird.html']PBI DCP3100PT DVBT HD MPEG4 IRD - Integrated Receiver/Decoders - Digital TV Broadcasting Equipment - Other Products[/URL] in which case it must not be pair as you are not necessarily purchasing them together. also, this forum thread [URL='http://www.austech.info/showthread.php/98299-vast-tuning']vast tuning[/URL] suggests the 5980 works with a single service VAST card and Cam. I believe it is the Card and Cam that are paired not the card and set top box. Happy for confirmation otherwise. sorry for the multi post - I was getting a posting error : ( [/QUOTE]
