Following up on a previous discussion:
As reported there, we now have three boxes from our cable company (Verizon), including two VMS4100 DVRs and one IPC4100 STB. As I understand it, the STB doesn't have its own tuners while the DVRs each have six tuners, such that in theory we could be recording up to twelve different programs at the same time.
Now here's the question: Is there a way for NextPVR to make use of these multiple tuners (using the appropriate hardware) so that we can record more than one program at the same time onto our PC, instead of onto the DVRs? Or are we limited to recording from one single channel on any single PC?
I suspect that the answer is the latter, but wish to confirm it. Or, preferably, refute it.
