I assume that myth doesnt actually prevent you from adding the second
recorder, but when you add it, it doesnt work?

I am curious what symptoms you get when you try, if you have done so.

If you can, try running multiple instances of vlc with the same
playlist, and try watching two different 'channels' at the same time.

You might want to take a look at:
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/3873

As well as:
