DUAL TV TUNERS????? HELP!

[jaruiz]

I was wondering if it would be possible to use dual TV tuners to record two seperate shows at the same time. I saw a commercial for the local Paragoncable company advertising a DVR that could do just that. It got me thinking and I came up with the idea that it would require two seperate tuners. I figure it'll take a fairly powerful computer, so the minimum requirements would definately be raised but I don't see why it couldn't be possible (unless due to software constraints, the computer would have a hard time addressing both computers. ) I figure using dual harddrives would solve any problem there. ANy comments?

If I understand correctly you want 2 TV tuner cards in one PC? That is an interesting setup. About the only issues I could see is Windows may not be able to drive both tuner cards at the same time. although I'm not positive on that.

I'm sure the CPU requirements could be large as well, however I think the first issue is the deciding factor.
