Hello all.
I recorded my first show last night and ran into something I was not expecting at all. Using an M780 card (1 NTSC tuner and 1 ATSC tuner) I configured GBPVR to record an ATSC channel. When the time came to record I was kicked out of Live TV view into the main menu. Trying to get back in to watch I was presented with the message that I didn't have a free tuner and could only opt to watch what I was recording or return to the menu.
My confusion comes because this card is a dual tuner card. I'm confused as to why I can't watch an NTSC show while an ATSC show is being recorded.
Is this a limitation of the card, GBPVR, or just an overall misunderstanding on my part as to what dual tuner cards are capable of?
Thanks!
