I am not watching any of the digitally captured shows on the mediamvp. I did try it early on, and I saw that HD shows just didn't work, and SD shows had audio sync issues. I am still using a pvr500 to record most of the SD content, so I can watch most of my SD recordings that way. > > > Roger Heflin wrote: > >> ...the HD5500 is about that and only has one digital tuner, I > >> don't know if you can use both tuners at the same time... > > > > I can record 2 HD programs at the same time with no problem. > > As expected.

I currently don't use the analog input since you cant do both Analog and Digital capture at the same time. I think there is a setting in myth that tries to manage this combined analog and digital tuner combination. One warning. If you have a hauppauge capture card and are using lirc to handle the remote, it is likely that putting in the ATSC110 will cause the remote to stop working properly (taking only ever 3rd keypress or so). This is because the driver for the ATSC110 brings in a i2c key event driver that reads from the hauppauge device and steals information from the lirc_i2c driver. I have a patch that I was using to keep this from happening, but the v4l guys seem to think that it is a lirc problem, and the lirc guys seem to think it is a v4l problem (I agree with the lirc guys). The v4l guys suggest not using lirc, and using the kernel's events mechanism. I had invested some time (and some customization of a remote control) in the lirc setup, and didn't want to change. I haven't been using the patch since I got the HDhomerun, I just use it as an ir receiver.
