Try toggling the Avoid Conflicts settings in Settings > TV
Settings > General (page 1)

Hit "Y" to switch cards.

Is that for all recordings, or only ones from the SkyStar2? I find
that DVB-S recordings suffer from a little jerkiness, most often when
the OSD appears or fades out. This is on an Athlon64 3200+ or
X24600+, so I'm not normally starved for CPU, it just seems that's
the way it is.
