Source as in "video sources" as in channel lineups.  Has nothing to do 
with capture cards/tuners/inputs.  I have one source and 2 capture cards 
and set up a box with one source and 4 capture cards.  Every one of my 
recordings (and every recording on the 4 card box) starts with "1" (i.e. 
1009_xxx, 1035_xxx) regardless of which tuner records them.
