No problem with most Linux based receivers, the Dreambox still being the front runner.

To be really effective a PVR needs 2 tuners, but this can be a waste of time on motorised systems, as very often the two programmes you need to watch and record simultaneously will be on different satellites.

Got one, wouldn't recommend it, get a Dreambox, not a poor imitation of one.
