[mythtv-users] Just Got a HD-PVR Correct Way To Add a New Lineup?

Hi all,

  I just got my HD-PVR and will hopefully get it installed this
weekend. I want to make sure I install the lineup for it the correct
way. Currently I have clear-QAM and analog cable. My digital inputs
are listed before my analog inputs. My digital schedules direct lineup
was added first and my analog second. Most of my recording rules are
'Record at any time on any channel', which prefers the digital version
of a program over the analog. Now with the HD-PVR I want it to be
preferred more than the analog, but less than the digital inputs. If I
have read Mike Dean's extensive posting on the subject, this is what I
need to do:

1) Add the HD-PVR lineup from SD
2) Remove all capture cards
3) Add digital cards first
4) Add HD-PVR second
5) Add analog cards last
6) Connect digital inputs
7) connect HD-PVR input
8) connect analog inputs

Can someone with a similar setup confirm this? My main concern is
getting the priorities right for recordings so the digital and HD-PVR
is preferred over analog. We don't use Myth to watch live TV often so
it is a secondary concern.

Thanks,
James
