Looks good.  Now you will want to ensure that they keep a consistent set 
of labels through reboots, that only the 292e is scheduled to record HD, 
and that it won't be busy with SD if an HD show is wanted.

The first is probably best done by a dvb.conf file in /etc/modprobe.d

Mine looks like this, for another set of hardware.

alias symbol:tda10046_attach() tda1004x
alias symbol:it913x_fe_attach() it913x_fe

options saa7134_dvb adapter_nr=0
options dvb_usb_af9035 adapter_nr=1,2

I don't know if I need the first two lines now.  The 'options' lines 
work for me with a 4.4 kernel but not, last time I tried, with the 
standard SL7 3.10.

I think the scheduling thing involves Groups, but have no recent experience.

Happy viewing!
