Nety, I have a similar setup to you, 2x HV4000's and a HVR2200.

Did you know that you can now setup the HVRx000's for both DVB-S & DVB-T at the same time? Win7 is smart enough to know that it is a hybrid tuner and will not try to use both the DVB-S and DVB-T on a single tuner at the same time.

That means I have 4xDVB-T tuners and 2xDVB-S tuners setup in 7MC.

Awesome stuff.

That is a whole lot of turners...Wink

At this stage my intention is not to record from DVB-T for the day to day stuff so no need really for multiple sources of DVB-T. I might set it up at some stage maybe when the full version is out.

I do have a question regarding recording but will ask that in its own thread rather then hijacking this one.
