Hi,
In the new house I am building, I would like to build a server that will stream TV out to about 4 clients via XBMC however I this is all new to me and after having a look at backends/add-ons, I'm still unsure about the best way to go about it.
As I said, this is all new to me so I have a couple of dumb questions..
I am especially curious to know the answer to the first question so I can get the sparky to install an appropriate amount of TV ports in my office.
If anyone can think of any other gotchas or must-dos while the house is being built that might save me a few headaches down the track, please also let me know your thoughts! (I'm running CAT6 to each TV)
Thanks in advance!

As I said, this is all new to me so I have a couple of dumb questions..
- How many TV tuners would the server need? ie. If 3 different channels were being watched in the house and 2 OTHER channels were being recorded, do I need 5 TV tuners?
- Which combination of backend/add-on is the most simple/effective? allowing me to - pause live TV (then resume from playback) and schedule recordings all within XBMC (not fussed about other functionality).
