Yes, if you are operating the Box Pro in IP Mode. If you have a TV aerial, you get more simultaneous watch/record options, up to four, if you can put the box in Aerial Mode.
A tip for reducing the number of channels required in IP Mode, though, is not to record anything off a BBC channel. Although it will record the programme, it will never play the recording back; it will just take you to the iPlayer, and if the programme is there, play it back from the iPlayer.
So you might as well not record it, make yourself a note to just watch it on iPlayer when you are ready, and save yourself a recording slot.
