I use the HDHR4-2DT and it does do multirec, so I assume the HDHR5-2DT does
as well. I had to move from internal PCIe card tuners after we moved and
the new house doesn't have any easy way to get an aerial cable to where the
backend resides. It's been going 24/7 for a year without issues, connected
over a Powerline network.
