I can try to explain you what I have understood. Please anybody correct me where I am wrong. The following is true in the case of a USB card capable of passing the whole TS to the kernel. 1 tuner => only 1 frequency! The dvr is useless since it can be opened only once. You can open the demux as many times as you want. Each time you set a filter. Then you can read from them. You can filter 1) based on a PID 2) just get the whole signal 3) set a section filter case 1 and 2: you can decide whether to get the TS or PES version of the stream. I am not too sure about PES. TS is pretty easy to use. If you want to get a channel (audio + video), then you are in trouble. I can only filter 1 pid, or the whole TS. So you would need to get the whole signal from each demux and filter (audio, video, subtitles...) in your userspace application (which is a big waste!) I have tried to ask (but did not get any answer) in this list, what people think about multi pid filter, so that you can get a full channel in each demux. Hope it helps.
