Is "loop throug" function usefull?

[danop]

I have 2 VU+ Duo with latest VIX running good, but now I got a small TV with support for CAM, so I wonder if
it is will work connecting the SAT cable to the small TV on tuner 2 (I only use 1 tuner) on the VU+ Duo, and set
VU+ to "loop throug", instead of making new cables fron the disc?

If it works I presume (but dont know) if the signal will be routed to tuner 2 (now as an output) in all cases,
or only is the sat box is switced of, or maibe in stand by too?

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

The loopthrough in tuner setup is useful if you are recording...

On 28.2e for example, when recording a channel, I have a wider selection of channels to watch whilst recording that if I left tuner b as unavailable...

But, on 19.2e, there is a much wider selection of channels. For example, if I am recording something on csat france, I can watch virtually every other channel on csat france. Same with digital+, and sky de. But, I cannot watch a channel from sky de whilst recording from csat france...
