Ok, I have got both a cheapo USB DVB-S and a USB DVB-T dongle, both working fine with TVServer. They both find all the channels fine and they both record separately very well. However, I can't seem to get TVServer to record from both cards at the same time. So, if I choose one program on DVB-S to record and then choose another program (on a different channel) from DVB-T to record, TVServer will record the program that starts first, but will fail to record the second program on the other card. I would have thought it wouldn't be a drive access issue as recording each stream is only about 12MB/Sec from what I have read and I am using a SATA drive. I also noticed that when it records from the DVB-T card, TVServer stores the recording in the default Application Data/MediaPortal folder and not in the C:/recordings folder that I have set in General Settings in TVServer. As far as I can see there is no per-folder settings for each card. Any ideas what might be wrong here, is this by design and why it is recording in the wrong folder??? Logs can be provided on request if needed. I have already applied the DVB patch as mentioned in this forum and mentioned in a few post with a similiar topic to mine, but no solutions came out of those threads.... [/QUOTE]
