Yes, all outputs are active at all times.

Using both on my 922 right now. Hdmi on the main tv in the living room and by component in my computer room. HD on two rooms on the same show.

Hmm..... Was pricing things out with DISH and was told their 211 receiver (the one they were suggesting) would not work in that manner. Was told that if HDMI was connected then the component video would not work.

I have been considering switching to DISH from Directv. Currently have a Directv HD-20 receiver feeding 2 HD TV's (in separate rooms (same channel)) using the HDMI and the Component Video.

Thanks for the feedback.

The outputs are active. The "tech support" agents are idiots.

He asked about a single tuner HD box.

I currently have a 211 and the HDMI feeds the TV and the composite connections run to my SlingBox. Both can be used and viewed at the same time. Haven't tried component so I can't verify that connection would also work.

It works the same way on single or dual tuner dish hd receivers.
