One 322 or two 311's for 2 tuner operations

[bgmess]

I have built a HTPC with a dual tuner tv card (saber 2020). I need a dual tuner receiver.

Is it better to use one 322 (even though only 1 of the tuners is output in S-video and only 1 tuner is controlled via IR) or should I go with two 311's?

Is the cable output good enough?

Can I run two 311's via two different IR remote controls. I use MCE, so I have two ir blasters. With the 322 can I control both tuners with IR and not have them tune to the same channel?

Is there a remote that will allow me to use the RF and IR?

I could really use some experienced guidance here.

What is the best setup?

Thanks,

Brian

as long as you can configure MCE to use different remote codes for the two receivers, and set each one to the corresponding code, you should be fine.

Advantage of 322 is if connected to landline, $5 additional outlet fee waived.
