PVR-500 and digital channels
Hey! I have a easy question, I hope. I have a PVR-500 that is running on a Motorola DCT2000 - and everything is running great - the plugin works fine. BUT my question is how do I setup Sage so that it will automatically use the cable box for my digital channels, 120 and above. I have setup the encoder merit so it will use the composite first, which runs the cable box, but this is not quite what I want. If I am recording something with the composite using the cable box it will ask me if I want to cancel the recording or do nothing, instead of just switching the channel with the TV tuner on the PVR-500 card. Anybody know how to fix this?
Thanks |

If I'm understanding correctly that you are using 2 sources - analog cable and digital cable - then you need to run two different EPG lineups with no channels in common. This will force SageTV to use 1 tuner for <120 and the other for >120. However, this won't always avoid a conflict with LiveTV if you decide you want to watch something in the same lineup as a current recording. You would need two digital cable set top boxes in order to avoid conflicts with LiveTV.
