How does Beyond TV know which tuner to use?

0

By default, Beyond TV will use the first configured tuner device that is capable of tuning the channel on which the show appears. For example, imagine that you have a PVR-150 (on Basic Cable) and a PVR-250 (on Digital Cable) and you configure the PVR-250 first and PVR-150 second in the Setup Wizard. If you schedule one recording, it will be performed on the PVR-250, as the first configured tuner source, even if the Basic (analog) cable lineup has the same channel available to it. A good rule of thumb is to configure last the tuner you want used least; in the above example, this means configuring the Basic Cable tuner first, and the Digital Cable tuner second.
