I have a pace tds470 as my main sky plus box but have been given a second sky plus box but its an amstrad drx280, have set it up in another room, connected 2 cables from the quad lnb,just switch card from 1 box to other, can watch fine, and manually record ok but anything recorded on planner on second box comes up recording interupted please wait, any suggestions as to a way round this as understood if rang sky to pair amstrad to my viewing card then main pace box wouldnt be paired correctly??
 
Welcome to the forum pecker115

I do not think there is any way around this, as I understand it, the card has to be paired to the box to record from planner

If i got another pace box the same as my main box would this work??


No I believe the pairing takes place between the Sky auth server and the stb via the card so I do not think it would help unless there is some way of altering an identical box to the same ID (box) number as the original. This may be possible in some way but I have no knowledge of it
 
Many thanx for your help, either i'll only use 1 as pvr or will be calling sky for a multi room setup
