Thanks, but I'm looking for a non-monetary solution, even if it results in some of my shows getting recorded with lower quality. This is for a secondary backend. I'm just trying to add parallel recording capability to resolve some conflicts. The key requirement is "no money". If the answer is, "can't do it", then I just stick with my one high quality back end and deal with not being able to record multiple shows at once. Lonnie
