[mythtv-users] HDPVR + Firewire in a Group?

So I just got around to getting my HDPVR set with a firmware and
connected and tested on my backend. Now I'd like to integrate it into
the system.

Right now I have two Motorola DCT6200 boxen capturing over firewire
for the channels in the clear. I'd like to connect the HDPVR to one of
them, have the two set up as a group so that channels that I get over
firewire will capture that way and capture the channels that won't
with the HDPVR. I haven't tried to set this up yet, but I did a quick
search on the Wiki and on this list and haven't seen much along the
way of if others have done this and their experience with it.

Does anyone have a firewire + HDPVR setup for their backend? Any
advice or is it just as easy as placing them in the same group? My
hope is to use firewire to change the channel even when it will be
recording via the HDPVR (minus any priming requirements).

thanks!
