Hello There! Long time user and pass member.
I would like to use 2 tuners, one cable-card, and one over the air. I would like to use a HDHR EXTEND so I can transcode DVR/Live TV when recording/watching a local channel, while also having my HDHR PRIME for all of my cable channels when recording/watching…
Basically, this is how the Channels App on iOS/tvOS handles multiple tuners. it just adds the OTA frequency channel numbers to the main guide, combining them… and this works perfectly!
This way, I can select which channel when viewing the guide, or scheduling a recording.
I would think this may get more popular as not everyone has a system that can transcode multiple streams of MPEG2 on the fly… using the EXTENDs to handle the transcoding on the fly significantly cuts down the need for having such a powerful system capable of transcoding/recording/viewing live tv.
just my $0.02… thanks for everything else you guys do!
