    you can record two channels and watch any other that falls on the same transponder as either of the two channels you are recording from.

    or watch one channel and record any other, while still being able to record another or more as long as they fall onto a transpoder which is the same as the channel your watching or the first recording you made,

    Basically if you have two tuners you can watch one and record one, all others are a bonus.

    ok just so i can be sure please answer my scenario.

    Lets say i want to record the The apprentice which airs on Wednesday at 9:00PM on BBC1. This will be recorded by Twin tuner A. Lets say this transponder is group A or 1. I also want to record a movie on sky movies that starts at 9:00PM on the same day. This will be on tuner B. Lets say this transponder is on a completely different one. (lets say transponder B). So now my box is recording two separate channels on different transponders. So i wont be able to view any more channels while both of these shows are recording because both my tuners are now occupied.. But i will be able to watch something previously recorded right?

    Is this possible. Sorry for the long question. I just want to be sure

    thanks
    So the question is can the Vu+ uno twin tuner do this ?

    You really need to sit back and read previous answers given...
    In this situation, you will also be able to record/watch any other channels broadcast on the same transponders that both tuners are using.

    At any recording stages, 2 tuners used, multiple recordings, you will also be able to watch any previously recorded shows or shows added to the HDD by various other means depending on the encoding & box used.

    Ok so i take it the answer is yes i can do this. So basically each tuner can connect to one transponder right?

    the 'can do and more right?' is the basic answer to all your questions so far...
    However, it's not the same as a Sky HD twin tuner (locked down) box, it can do so much more & like any box, the longer you use it the easier it gets.
