Genie with mini-genies

With a Genie DVR and 3 wireless genies how many programs can be watched and/or recorded at the same time?  This would include watching already recorded programs.

Depends on which Genie you have, the HR44/54 Genies have five tuners so if you are watching live TV on all four TVs you will only have one left for recording, watching recorded programs don't use a tuner so if nobody is watching live TV and only recordings you have all five tuners to record.

The HS17 Genie2 has 7 tuners so if your are watching live TV on all four TVs then there are 3 tuners left for recording.

That depends on what Genie DVR model you have.  What is its model number?
