[mythtv-users] Dual Tuners - How to set primary for Live TV? (tuner affinity?)

As I recall, I edited my /etc/modules and put the 'bttv' entry above
the 'ivtv' entry so that my ivtv module installed after bttv, then ran

# update-modules

This is on a KnoppMyth (debian) system.  Since the bttv modules loads
first during boot, I get it as /dev/video0, and my ivtv as
/dev/video1.  In mythtv-setup, I entered /dev/video1 as my first
capture card, so my PVR is my primary capture device.

That should always make your ivtv card load after the bttv card and
make the PVR-250 your primary MythTV capture card.

Hope this helps. :)
