If you use the M (menu) key and select Source then you get a list of
available tuners to switch to.  Any tuners that are in use do not
appear on the list.  If you set up all the tuners with different names
in the display name field (capturecard.displayname), then those names
will be the ones on the Source list and will allow you to distinguish
the tuners.  You set the display names in mythtv-setup => Input
Connections.
