[mythtv-users] Master backend REQUIRES one tuner? Adding more?

[Jim Minihane]

Reading through the docs it says that the master backend HAS TO have at
least one capture/tuner device. It suggests the "round robin" approach. Can
I, as they suggest, have 2 slave backends with a total of 5 tuners,
(DirecTV) and a 6th on the master. If I configure the tuners on the slaves
first, and the master last, then it will rarely, if ever, get used. Cool. If
I add 2 more tuners for a total of 7 on the slaves, can I delete the one on
the master, add the 2 additional on the slaves, then re-add the one (now
8th) on the master. Making the 8th tuner hardly ever used.

How many tuners/devices do you guys have on your uber systems?

This is all good if I can use Plextor M402Us. If not. Plan B. Whatever that
is.
