[mythtv-users] Thinking of adding DirecTV, have questions

I currently have 2 HD-HR's for local channels, but I would like to
have a little more content.  I think DirecTV would be my first choice.
I would want at least 2 HD tuners.  Is there anything I should watch
out for?  I assume I need 2 HD-PVR's.  It looks like I might need a
couple coax to toslink audio adapters, depending on the STB's I get
from DirecTV.  I would like to use http to change channels on the
STB's.  Is there something I am missing?  Any issue with using 2
HD-PVRs to a single back-end?  Any issues to watch out for with USB?
How is the quality of 1080i recordings?

Thanks!

-Andrew
