I've been able to repeat this behavior. First I go to a OTA channel. Next go to a Sat channel, I went to DiscHD. Go to the guide and press the record button and choose stop at end of program. Next I canceled out till I was watching DiscHD. Now I want to go back and watch the OTA channel. I'm told I have to be in Live TV and do I want to stop recording. I only have one recording going. Now if I go to any Sat channel I don't get this message and then I can go to my OTA channel.

Thanks,

Ken

I did try and see if this was reported, sorry if it's a dup

Ken, please post your software version when reporting bugs. Thanks.

The solution to this problem is to use the channel up/down buttons to change the channel once you exit back to live after your recording is started. Changing the channel will cause the 921 to switch to the other satellite tuner (which won't affect the current recording), and then you'll be able to change to an OTA channel.
