Using the "Delete All Capture Cards" options - with no mention of
hostname - will TRUNCATE the relevant DB fields and reset the
auto-incrementing fields. The fact your numbering was not reset leads
me to believe (although I could be wrong) the correct option was not
chosen.

Don't forget you can also add a name for the input which can make
identification easier.

Truncating the relevant tables would be the "correct" way of doing it,
as this is what the mythtv-setup option does IIRC. However, as
manipulating the DB yourself is not recommended, and as mythtv-setup
provides the necessary functionality (unless there has been a
regression, in which case raise a ticket), please retry the "official"
method first.
Cheers,
Nick
