hi, i want to use astra and hotbird, but i don't know how. what is the easiest way? at the moment i have a quad-lnb for astra and two dvb-s cards. i wanted to by a additional lnb for hotbird and put it together on the satellite dish. but how do i have to connect it to the computer? normally i want to see astra, only sometimes hotbird, so i don't want to use one dvb-s card only for hotbird. i found a diseq-switch, wich has two in and one out connectors. is it possible to connect one line from astra an one from hotbird to that switch and from the switch to one of the dvb-cards. the other card stays at the second line from astra. is it possible for vdr to handle this? and what if for example i watch with the dvb-card (1) which is connected directly to astra and at the same time i want to record at astra with the other dvb-card (2). should work. now i stop watching on 1 and want to see hotbird. what does vdr do? switch recording to 1 and watch hotbird via 2? any other possibility to include hotbird? better solution? thanks olli
