- My Satellite Setup
- TV with built in Freeview/ Virgin Media TiVo V6 box
- My Location
- UK
A mention in another thread about hybrid cable/satellite boxes got me thinking.
Do boxes capable of handling two or all three services exist?
I have Freesat, the Virgin Media TiVo and Freeview built into my TV.
It would be very useful to be able to tie them all up together.
Two advantages immediately spring to mind.
- If all tuners are in use, another platform could be used for another channel.
- Some channels are on one platform, but not another.
In reality, I expect that i'll have to keep using my TiVo for recording and pay TV services.
