Twin Tuner Question

[the_watcher87]

I bought my Cube Revo over ebay, it was an ex shop model and came with a 500gb hard drive. The only thing that didn't suit me was it came with 1 sat and 1 cable tuner. I will change the cable to a sat tuner as I can't get cable in my area.

My question is will it function similar to a sky+ box when I change the tuner as in say I'm recording Channel 4 and want to watch ITV that that will be no problem. Also if I want to record the two?

Thanks in advance

few replies from some other peeps,i aint tryed yet pmsl


I can watch one channel while recording another, as long as there both on same Satellite.
not sure if thats true for HD channels though?

It is also true for HD channels!
For example I can record PrimiereHD and DiscoveryHD and whatch ANIXE.They are ALL on the same transponder!
