 I deleted all cards from mythtv, then I tried to re-add them.
 The first type of card available in the mythtv-setup wizard is V4L.
 I have two /dev/video[12] devices, 1 is a terratec saa7134 and 2 is a
 hdpvr.
 The device identification in mythtv-setup was blank upon entering the
 wizard, and below was the message "could not open card" or similar - this
 is from memory, sorry I cannot be more specific. Typing "/dev/video0"
 works, though, and the card description appears as "Cinergy Terratec etc".

 Adding a dvb-s card with a 2 lnb switch shows problems when I add the
 input connections later on: The program keeps offering new input
 connections even when I chose just 2 simultanneous recordings. Shouldn't
 this be at most 4 virtual cards?
 Also, in the new cardinput table, the default inputname value for the
 dvb-s card is "Television" instead of "DVBinput" that was present before
 deleting the cards.

 The backend refuses to run with the dvb-s card added, and shows messages
 like "Are you sure you added all input connections ..."

 The backend works ok with just the analog and hdpvr connected.

 Adding a dvb-t card with 4 simultanneous connections only adds one
 cardinput.

 Also, during my last full satellite scan  - this was some time ago - no
 new channels were reported found if I let the scan finish, although I
 could see them in the scanner being found. To add them, I had to manually
 interrupt the scanning process.
