Source ID is the Video Source ID (where you defined one or more Video 
Sources in mythtv-setup--with those cards, you would actually need at 
least 2 video sources), and is a 1-based index.  But, if you don't do a 
"Delete all video sources" ( 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/264034#264034 ) when 
deleting video sources, the ID's will be non-contiguous.  You'll likely 
have to look at the DB to find the right one.
