6.4.6 Tuner Switching Hangs Sage

[ghostlobster]

I've got an HDHR and an HD-PVR. When I flip between the 2 with 6.4.6, in most instances, Sage Hangs to the point of having to '3-finger-salute' it (ctrl-alt-del)
As this was happening quite frequently, I have removed the HDHR from the config for now. Has anyone else seen this when viewing live TV? Just flip between the tuners 2 or 3 times in a row, and bam...locked up.

I don't have the answer, but I'm curious:

Has a way to directly toggle between the tuners been implemented? What is the shortcut, and sage version that has this?

I'm not certain I understand the question. My HD-PVR tunes the channels from my cable box and my HDHR tunes the clear QAM. So, if I'm watching ESPN-HD on channel 290 and I want to switch to a clear QAM channel, to watch the news. I just enter channel 5.1 and it switches to the HDHR...or at least it's supposed to. It then locks up tight as a drum.

I'm on XP, but I have the HD-PVR, an HDHR and a few other tuners. I do not have this issue on my setup at least. Not sure what to suggest here. Hopefully there will be some suggestions, but on something like this I would also definitely submit a support request from SageTV

OK it sounds like there isn't a way to do what I want.

What I want is to be able to toggle back and forth between tuners without entering the channel #. Just be able to assign a hot key to flip back and forth(in the case you don't remember which channel you were at).

Anyway hopefully someone has an answer for you!
