[QUOTE="geov, post: 209732, member: 26381"] Hi The simple answer is yes you can record from your set-top-box, as for if the DVB-T cards that you have will work I don’t know, perhaps someone with equivalent hardware will be able to answer you. Usually to record from a set-top-box you will have to use a TV-card that can accept an s-video or composite inputs. I don’t think MediaPortal can record directly into other format files as it usually records in "DVR-MS" format, after which you will have to convert it into another format. MediaPortal is used to give you PVR functionality combined with other HTPC functions and not only to just record TV-shows. Anyway, if you need more detail I propose you search the forums and read the wiki pages. And in future you will have to give more detail on all your hardware and set-up. [/QUOTE]
