Hi There, I'm an old SageTV guy moving back to Media Center. In my old Sage setup, I had a couple satellite set top boxes controlled by 2 HD-PVR's. I would like to do the same with with Media Center. I have a single HD-PVR controlling a single satellite set top box. Works fine. My question is how do I configure Media Center and the HD-PVR software for the second HD-PVR/Set top box? Is this even possible? When I went through the Hauppauge documentation, they said that you can only use one HD-PVR in Media Center. Is this correct? If this is so, can I replace the HD-PVR's with a Colossus to get multiple satellite set top boxes to work? I have searched and searched and can't find any information on this.
Thanks In Advance

I no longer run HDPVRs, but I had been running two HDPVRs at the same time with no real issues. I never got around to trying the native software from Hauppauge to do it though. I used the software outlined here:

It was a little tricky to setup, but worked fine for me. Sorry I can't be more of a help, but I moved to a CableCARD a year or two ago.
