Title: build .35 one tuner config working two tuner not...
Post by: adlelare on November 13, 2014, 11:57:58 am: yesterday after update with one tuner (HP 950Q) i could watch and/or PVR and all network devices worked fine.

as soon as i employed two tuners (950Q and HDHR) everything failed as before... JRiver "hung" (live TV still playing until i hit a button then it grayed and stopped) and network devices stopped. FYI 950Q is direct to HTPC vs. HDHR is via network)... PS like another poster the tonight show failed to PVR.

on PVR'ing it can create huge files (i got them +40gb in size).. so i know now it seems to work fine with the Hauppauge 950Q (which i fully expected as it is not a network tuner) doesn't when i have HP 950Q and HDHR running simultaneously, next i will disable the HP and one of the HDHR tuners and see what happens. and if that works then try both HDHR tuners then...there is also a new firmware for the HDHR i may try... who knows for sure.

Post by: CountryBumkin on November 17, 2014, 03:17:32 pm: Maybe we should create a list (spreadsheet) or what Tuner card combinations are known to work. That might help determine if the User has a new (untested) combination, or something that is known to work. Of course there are so many other hardware variables its difficult or impossible to test everything.

I have two tuner cards, a Hauppauge HVR-2250 (dual tuners) and the 950Q (USB-stick tuner) on the same machine without issue. But I rarely find enough quality TV material to warrant recording three programs at the same time (I have done it for testing).
