Hi everyone!
Is it possible to record two channels at the same time?

First of all, you can only set a single tuner to one frequency at a time.
Means, you can only read streams from the one transponder you have tuned to.
Then, to read other than the main streams of one station on a transponder, you need to have a device, that provides full access to the transponder, by doing the stream filtering in software. This excludes all the SS1 style hardware decoding cards, even in software mode. But with budget cards (with no DSP on them), you can normally access all streams at a time.
Then, theroretically there are two ways, to use streams from the other stations there, either by some PIP function, or by the PID recorder.
All just theory, as on my default OS (Win98SE) I can only use my NEXUS (SS1 Premium, no TS), and I don't have enough time ATM, to play around to much with Win2000 or XP.
