I have two encoder cards with mythbackend / frontend all on the same box.
For some reason when I click on "backend status" it makes the httpd2 process
peg my CPU at 100% for about 30 seconds till it times out and doesn't work.
I have to try several times before it works.  Then when it does work it
always shows 3 encoder cards.  Not sure what the first one is supposed to be
but Encoder 2 (on the web interface) is my PVR-350 (/dev/video0) and Encoder
3 (on the web) is my PVR-250 (/dev/video1).
