Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I currently have a single 0.24-fixes backend with a single Hauppauge Nova-S2 card and multiple front-ends. I am in the UK.</div><div><br></div><div>I want to add a second DVB-S2 tuner card (cabled to the same quad-port LNB) to my backend to give me the ability to record simultaneous programmes across different multiplexes.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I currently use the UK Radio Times xmltv EPG and want to continue to use this once the new card is installed.</div><div><br></div><div>My question is: can I add a 'second set' of exactly the same channels, with identical programme data, on the second card and let MythTV decide which card to use based only on the channels that I want to record? - or must I 'split' my channels manually across the two cards (say: BBC1 on tuner 1, ITV on tuner 2, etc. etc.) so that Myth knows that if I want to record BBC1 it has to use tuner 1? </div>
<div><br></div><div>If I have to assign the channels manually how can I choose them so as to give me the ability to record the maximum number of simultaneous channels (given that some of my channels share multiplexes)?</div>
