I need to verify the record/watch capability. Can you watch 2 and record 3 for example (no clients).
Since the clients are not satellite receivers, up to 5 channels are being recorded at all times.

I installed an H25 (you could install 2 H25's and a client) instead of clients so I can be watching something on the H25 (but it is not being recorded) and still recording 5 on the Genie.
If you are watching recorded programming on 3 clients you can still record 5 programs.
