Win8.1 and MC setup
Does anyone know if the WMC tuner setup supports Satellite TV and (2) STB DirecTV and (2) Colossus Capture cards as Video input?

Last time I even thought about WMC & DirecTV, it only supported a single IR blaster for channel changes; so, if you have TWO DirectTV STBs, then I don't think it'll work. Admittedly, that was over three years ago with VistaMC.
Also, just to be clear-- you have TWO Colossus Capture cards and are looking to hook each up to a DirecTV STB? So, you are expecting only two tuner/recordings, correct?

Yes, exactly... I have already configured WMC with (2) satellite tuners and (2) DirecTV STB H24, but no blaster function using a external USB transceiver (Microsoft certified). I was just wondering if anyone has tried this setup under Win 8.1 with success.TheOsburnFamil wrote:Also, just to be clear-- you have TWO Colossus Capture cards and are looking to hook each up to a DirecTV STB?

I will also be trying IP control of the STBs...
