[mythtv-users] 2nd WinTV 250MCE card not working

[Jim Valavanis]

Hello again everybody.

I'm still trying to get these 2 tuner cards working together in this 
knoppmyth 4.2 install. I am receiving errors when initializing the 2nd 
PVR-250MCE tuner card. Here is the output from the messages file...

I think everything else looks OK but the IRQ error...
You notice the message about failing to register IRQ -16?  What can I do 
to get this adapter recognized properly?

Thanks again for the help!
