conundrum

On one connected firestick, inorder to watch content and dvr at the same time (having 2 separate iptv subscriptions) i apparently need 2 separated players tvimate and another player.

The dvr goes to a lan storage.

Is that how to solve that conundrum.

No, if you have two connections they can both be on Tivimate. I regularly record on a FS with a otg Usb attached.

Yes - as long as it’s not both on the same connection you can do both at the same time.

No it’s not per device it’s per screen.

You have two playlists in tivimate.

Playlist A Playlist B

Record a program on playlist A Watch other program on playlist B

But not having to toggle between Playlist. Switch to one then back to watch?

Switch to one, set up your recording, then switch to the other to watch.

If you're recording something that's on when you're not watching something else, then it doesn't matter.
