I have two capture cards in my mythbox:
pchdtv-3000, which has been in the box for a while but which I just recently got working and configured,
Happague PVR-150, which is my main recording inteface. It is addressed as /dev/video1
Whenever the HDTV-3000 is installed, and configured, something odd happens -- often but now always -- after a system reset. The Happague card kind of disappears on me. Specifically, the configuration listing swaps from /dev/video1 to /dev/video0. It's like the binding between the database information and the hardware gets lost.
The fix is easy; I turn off mythbackend, bring up mythtvsetup, and go to the Capture Cards listing for the Happague. The config page will show /dev/video0, and list the hdtv-3000 card as hardware it's seeing. I just need to switch /dev/video0 to /dev/video1 and I'm back in business.
Anyone else see this? Is there a way to keep this from happening?
