I'm soon to receive a Hauppauge 500mce - what I want to know is how it handles the two tuners with sequencial recordings on two channels. IE if I schedule 7:30 - 8:30 on TV2 with 5 minutes eitherside and then 8:30 - 9:30 on TV3 again with 5 minutes will it alternate tuners or will GBPVR decide it can handle both on one tuner - This is the biggest annoyance for me (not with GBPVR - with VCR as well!!!!) Its rare for channels to start/end on time and you always end up Missing the End of the TV2 show as its running a little overtime and then what you get at the start of TV3 is news shorts etc.

How will it behave? Can I force a tuner for each recording?

I won't use the pc much for timeslipping or live watching so I don't care if GBPVR is hogging both tuners when some might consider it unnecesary.

Woohooo - I Can't wait to get this card!!!

Has anyone OEM'd your software to bundle yet Sub - they really should - especially Lifeview because their hardware is pretty good - their software is BBBBBAAAAAAAADDDDDDD - I didn't use my card AT ALL due to the crap software until I stumbled on yours.

GBPVR can be a little touchy to get running but thats purely the nature of it - It needs to be used in combination with other software/codecs - If it could be bundled to install with a set of codecs and the right drivers in one install oem'd with some hardware it would be idiotproof.

I hope you are making a living out of this somehow SUB - You deserve to!
