if you're trying to watch BBC3 through the Sky box and record Sky Sports also through the Sky box then this cannot be done, a Sky box only has 1 decoder in it (even Sky+ and SkyHD) so you will only be able to have 1 channel on at a time.
If you had Sky+ or SkyHD then they come with 2 tuners but still only have 1 decoder which means you would still only be able to see 1 thing at a time but you could record the stream from the satellite to the internal HDD and then watch that back through the decoder at another time.
