I was playing around with TVedia for some time but was not really convinced about this software package. But one feature was very nice in the TVedia package that might be good to implement into GBPVR going forward.

Situation:
I am using a Digital Cable settop box for the HBO channels. These channels can not be recorded through my PVR250 tuner card unless I go through the composite input straight from the box. But most of the time I like to record the standard channels. This can be done while watching something else on the TV which is the purpose of the PVR system. So most of the time the setup is using the "Cable Tuner" in the Config Program. Only when I like to record HBO I need to go into the Config Program and change the input manually to "Composite".

In TVedia one was able to tell the program which input each channel was suppose to use; i.e. HBO is recorded using the composite input. So one had not to worry about switching manually when recording digital cable from the settop box (you only have to remember to leave the settop box on that channel you like to record).

In GB-PVR you do this by setting up two capture sources for the same card. Set one to use the internal tuner, the other to use desired input (ie, composite).
