Hi - I really need some help. I have Windows media centre running on Vista
Premium Home edition. My PC has a built in HD Tuner and a second S Video
input. I am trying to have the media centre tune into the Terrestrial HD
channels using the built in tuner and at the same time have it tune into
Satelite channles by attaching my satelite tuner to the S Video input. I can
get the Media centre to pick up channles from each but only one at a time.
e.g. If i set it up for the Terrestrial Digital then it deletes all of the
settings for satelite TV and vice versa. How do I set it up to enable the
Media centre to tune into both sources at the same time?

If you have multiple TV tuners connected to your computer,
they must have the same signal source.
