IIRC, mythtv-setup only populates the default device nodes in the
drop-down, eg: /dev/video? for v4l/ivtv/etc devices. You need to select
the appropriate type of device in the top drop down, then just type in
the correct device node eg:
/dev/videopvr150
Don't forget the after you define the capture cards, you still need to
define a source, then connect the appropriate card/input to the
appropriate source.
