If you're happy with only one recording or live tv at the same time, then you can create two capture sources for the same card, both set as device #1, and GB-PVR will take of making sure only one at a time is used etc.

It's not too complicated, basically, you'll need to run either composite or Svideo from your STB to your capture card. Then setup the other capture source (but heed Subs comment, you can only watch EITHER capture source at a time, not both at the same time)

You'll also need a separate EPG listing associated with each capture source - and make sure they don't have duplicate channels or else it will only take one of them.

Here's an example of a more complicated setup, but the concept is the same (as far as duplicated channels) http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=24842&page=2

The idea is that using channels under 100 would would force GBPVR to use capture source for the analog channels, and over 100 it would use Digital channels from the STB.

Post what you find out....this seems to be a nice offering from ATI...


Bad news... This is from Last years CES (dated 2006) but I bet it similar.

Quote:ATI has already announced one such product, an unnamed "OCUR" (Open Cable Uni-directional Receiver), at this year's CES,
You can forget about buying a copy of Vista and an OCUR to roll your own solution—as ATI told us, their product will only be available in OEM systems, no doubt because of the certification issue
