Yep, went throught the setup.  I also went into setup, deleted both
cards.  I have one tv-wonder ve and one m179.  I then re-entered both
cards.  Same thing happens in the frontend
setup->tvsettings->recording profiles has _no_ profiles for MPEG 2
encoders listed, and I can select a blank one, but cant change
anything about it.

I did upgrade this from 0.11, could that have caused any weirdness?  I
would think that removing the cards and putting them back in would fix
any problems.
