Hello,

I was wondering about how I should set up myth to allow recording videos
from my VCR.  I have it connected to the component video of my V4L card. 
The tuner connection on the V4L card is my normal input.

I am unsure how I should match the input connections to allow recording
from the VCR without conflicting with the regular TV stuff.  The
documentation warns about matching my normal xmlTV input source against it
to prevent myth from trying to record television shows via this input.

What is the best way to create an input source that will allow me to
manually record videos and not conflict with the existing Tuner input and
xmlTV source?

I don't mind manipulating the databases directly if required.

Thanks for your time,
Brent Hills
