Sage TV and wintv2k together ??

Right now I have a pvr250 and a ATI Tv Wonder ve (its how I got dual tuner support)

this weekend I am going to get sage tv since I found out it can in fact record to mpeg1 :-) yippee :-)

the plan is to dump the wonderve and install an mce500

now. can I set the sage tv to prefer the tuners in the mce 500 and not use the pvr250 unless it NEEDS to ?

if I can do that can I then open wintv2k and VIEW live tv using the pvr250 even if sage records on the tuners of the mce500 ?

for some reason they tell me I will not be able to view live tv using the sage software if I pick mpeg1 overall this is JUST fine since I almost never watch tv on that machine but now that I have a monitor for it I have started using it to watch random stuff when I am upstairs using the main machine. not often though.

is this possible or will they fight over each other ?

also what happens if sage decides it needs that 3rd tuner while I am watching something ? will it change channels and close wintv2k or wil it get nasty with me :-) (assuming this can work at all off course)

you will not want to setup the pvr 250 in SageTV then if you want to use it in WinTV

but why you can use the pvr 500 and pvr 250 in SageTV

the pvr 500 can record whatever you want
and you can still use the pvr 250 as well
