Having no access to HDTV in the UK, here's what I would look to do:

** install the cards one at a time **

i) get the cards working properly outside of MythTV
iii) once working, enter mythtvsetup and add the new card
iii) configure the new video source if you need to, and connect to new
card's input(s)
iv) configure listings for the new video source
v) configure channel/card priorities for the new card

Back up your database before starting anything, and take Mercury's
advice and check the archives for any issues relevant to your
particular cards.
