Run mythtvsetup on each backend to configure its local capture card and
video source.  After that, you don't need to tell it anything.  Each backend
only records with its local card(s); the master backend takes care of the
scheduling.  If you're having problems after doing that, you're better off
posting your specific problem and asking for help.  (i.e., "I'm setting up a
multi-backend system and my slave backend can't see recordings on the master
backend", or something like that)  You're barking up the wrong tree with
this thread.
