------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 When using a TBS-5520SE the following devices are available: demux0, dvr0,
 frontend0, frontend1, net0

 mythtv-setup and mythtv backend seem to make the assumption that if
 frontend1 is chosen then demux1 should be used even if no such device
 exists.

 I think i have narrowed it down to line 606 of streamhandler.cpp

 QString demux_fn = CardUtil::GetDeviceName(DVB_DEV_DEMUX, dvb_dev);

 and/or lines 2077-2096 of cardutil.cpp i.e. the GetDeviceName function.

 hope that's helpful.

 The same issue appears to effect the astrometadvbt2 usb device. And a
 workaround would be to rename frontend1 to frontend0.

 Cheers

 Maff
