I have an hvr2200 and get my epg from the dvb-t signal with mheg2xml  
and rb-download. Seldom find I want a third tuner. I do believe the  
hvr2200 (and I guess many pc tuners) is a bit "deaf" compared to tv  
tuner so it needs a pretty good (power and signal to noise) signal for  
glich-free reception.
