Hi,

I've just bought and installed version 1.7 and it seems to be working very well indeed.
Only one problem - I'm using a Black Gold BGT3620 dual tuner DVB-T / DVB-T2 cand and I cannot figure out how to use both tuners - e.g. watch one channel while recording another.

Can anyone help?

Cheers,
Kev.

As far as I know You need to instal DD 2 times in separate folders.
Then configure first one to use first tuner on the card and the second one to use the second tuner on the card.
As DD stores tuner configuration each instance will use own tuner so You will be able to wach usin one instance when the other will be recording.
Im not sure how to choose the corect tuner on card as i dont have such device but it shoud be possible as far as I remember.

Just tried that - it works :)
Thanks very much poppo.

Hope they build multi-tuner options into future versions.
