Thanks for the update on the TiVo/DirecTiVo capabilities. Do they make one that will allow you to record 4 simultaneous programs while watching a prerecorded one? Or watch live TV while recording 3 other programs? My Mythbox has this feature. In fact, I bet I could add another PVR-500 capture card and get 6 tuners working, although after that I would be out of PCI slots, not to mention I would need to add quite a bit of new hdd space. --Garry _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
