Comment (by mythtv@…):

 And the last info from this test evening.

 -- shutting down the virtual W7 made mythtv-setup much more responsive. It
 also provided proof that mythtv-setup was waiting on some timout and not
 actually hanging. No idea why this might be. What is a VBox?

 The quote from gigem above gave me an idea. Manually editing capturecard
 table to add the right diseqcid into the second card definition on the
 same card, but for the second LNB. That works, and mythtv-setup is then
 suddenly able to tune on the second LNB.

 Starting mythbackend immediately showed another problem: the backend tries
 to open the same adapter twice and fails on doing that. It does start, but
 with very regular complaints that it cannot open an adaptor because that
 adapter is already in use. This may have bad results for recording on the
 second LNB. I expect this to be a consequence of defining the same card 2x
 for different LNB. Should not the backend somehow know about this
 relationship?
