I was just wondering how you do your channel changing with multiple
DCT-2000 boxes. Right now I'm running just one but I have another
PVR-250 I just put in my backend and would like to excersize the whole
"watch one digital channel and record another" option. As it sits I'm
using a serial connection to change channels on the one box but this
looks like it's going to get confusing adding more STB's to the backend.<br>
<br>
Just curious how you worked around this.<br>

<br>The long answer is that on many cable systems, most of the channels that<br>people actually want to watch are on analog anyway. So what you can do is<br>split the cable, send one straight to a tv tuner card for analog channels and
<br>the other to your set top box for analog + digital.<br><br>My current backend uses three PVR250 cards. Two of them are fed by DCT-2000<br>STB's and the third uses straight analog cable.<br><br>Mark<br>_______________________________________________
