<span class="q">umm..yeah, that's what I meant by "</span><span class="q">I went into the backend setup program , and I added the two tuners from the PVR-500, and it seems they were detected correctly" but I guess I didn't specifically link them to a listing source. In fact, I'm not sure where I ever linked my original card to a listing source. I know where I set that up, but since I only had one, I guess I never had to toggle anything to specifically look at that card since it was the only one. I did this over my lunch break, so I didn't have much time to figure out what was wrong. I think that's where I need to look next. Thanks.

umm...hate to ask this, but did you add them through mythtv-setup?<br>And link them to a listings source? If not, then Myth isn't gonna see<br>them at all...<br>--<br>Doug<br>_______________________________________________
