You need DVB drivers for the HD3000 cards and ivtv drivers for the
PVR-x50.  I have a similiar configuration with two (2) HD-3000 cards and
one (1) PVR-350.  I am having difficulty getting the two HD-3000 cards
to work.  It is likely me not configuring things quite right.  My
anticipation is to have the HD-3000's setup for ATSC and the PVR-350 for
NTSC.

I am told the HD-3000 cards will not handle both NTSC and ATSC - this is
an either/or situation.  In looking at .20 screens, there is the GUI
option to use the card "on demand."  I'm thinking this would enable
mapping different video sources to the card and then the driver would
configure the card as ATSC or NTSC based on the source.

I'd like to hear how things are going offline ...
