I posted this in Hardware but maybe it should go here...
Currently I have a one PVR150MCE connected to my Dish Networks stb using S-video.
Because of recording conflicts, I want to add another PVR150 to receive OTA signals. I have an antenna in my attic that pics up local stations pretty clear for the most part, except for channel 7.
Because my Dish uses the same channel numbers as OTA, is there a way to map the OTA channel to a different number and still have the guide work and all that? If not, how will that work if I want to record something on channel 7 and both Dish and OTA have channel 7 available?
I'd rather have anything that's supposed to record, try to record from the Dish tuner first because I know the picture will always be clear. Give the Dish tuner priority #1 for live TV and recordings. If it's already recording, use the OTA tuner for additional recordings or live TV.
