I don't understand what the "Input Connections" window is setting, 
or to say the same thing, what is it trying to tell me?

I have the entries:

    [HDTV:/dev/dtv1](Antenna-0)->Antenna
    [MPEG:/dev/video0](Tuner0)->Antenna

OK, I can understand that this is associating both the pcHDTV hd2000 card
(HDTV), and the PVR-250 card (MPEG) with the Antenna database.  There could
be other databases if I were connected to say cable.

the /dev/dtv1 and /dev/video0 are just where we find the pcHDTV and PVR-250
card.

But what is this Antenna-0 and Tuner0 business trying to tell me?
Clearly BOTH boards have tuners, but 'tuner' is not an option when 
setting up the HDTV card.  What is that trying to tell me?

Confused.
