 If you have multiple encoder cards of the same type (in this case, two
 Hauppage 350's), autodetection of the device name prevents one
 from correctly specifying the device file using mythtv-setup.

 Specifically, adding the first card and configuring works fine.
 When adding the second card and specifying /dev/video1 and saving, the
 device is automatically changed to /dev/video0 (looks like it picks up the
 first probed Hauppage instead of the manually specified second Hauppage
 card and did a nasty override the dev!).

 Fix was to go into the mysql 'capturecard' table and manually set the
 videodev column to /dev/video1 after which everything else worked just
 fine.
