[mythtv-users] master/slave backend config trouble

[Jesse Perkins]

Sounds like you need to run mythtvsetup and clear all your capture
card config.  Once it has been cleared, you'll have to run mythtvsetup
on both the slave and the master backends to define their respective
capture cards.  Once each backend has its capture card defined, the
frontend should be able to do two things at once, like PiP or watching
and recording different channels.
