It's a dual-tuner, you can't watch three broadcast items at one time
(you can record two and watch something that was recorded earlier,
though).

As to which one of the two will get lost doing what you did, it's not
random.  Which show was "active" when you told it to stop and change
channels?  Was it the one that got lost?
