About sharing the tuner
Media C enter supports a single tuner so only one TV channel can be handled at a time. For instance, if you are watching TV while Media
C enter is recording, then you can watch only the channel currently being recorded. If you attempt to change the channel, you are
notified that changing the channel stops any recording in progress. Alternately, if a recording is scheduled to begin and you are watching
a different channel than the recording, Media C enter prompts you to change the channel to begin the recording. If you select Cancel,
then Media C enter does not record the show and you can continue to use the tuner to watch TV.
In addition, My TV shares the use of the single tuner card with Radio or any other Media C enter applications that might require use of
the tuner. In Media C enter, you are unable to play radio or to watch or record TV when the tuner is in use by another application. If you
are using the tuner when a recording is scheduled to start, a notification appears that requests use of the tuner to begin recording.
