????

you have to record with the socond card !  - so setup your channels conf..
Then you will be able to watch the movie with the Primary CARD while the second card is still recording.

What kind of remote do you use ? - LIRC ?

Then use a programm called LIRCEXE - with this you can execute programms with your remotecontroll.

I use it to controll the alsamixer - with this command i can Mute, change volume ....

All this ony works if you loop the signal through a Sound-CARD....... !!!
