No you can't, you can only record what it is currently playing back. This
means you can't watch something already recorded on the DVR while mythtv is
trying to record something. So basically what every is on your tv is what is
being fed out the firewire port minus the menu overlay.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Motorola Dual Tuner DVR & Firewire

Hi,

       I have a Motorola Dual Tuner DVR/HD cable box.  This thing has 
two firewire ports and two tuners.  Does anyone know if I can record 
from two different channels on the two firewire ports at the same time?

I haven't messed with it yet, don't have a firewire card & need to setup 
a "testing" myth box, but I'm itching to know if someone else has tried 
this.

      Also on the firewire ports does it display any of the onscreen 
display stuff from the cable box?

Thanks,
Billy
