For sure.

Actually, the way it is implemented on the Dreambox is not that bad, because
there is at least one demux available for each frontend and you can choose
which frontend to connect to which demux(es), to use one demux for live tv,
and other ones for PIP or recording. But that doesn't really match PC
peripherials.
