Dueling remotes, REGARDLESS of interface issues is always a bad idea;
especially if it's spouse-on-spouse.

OK, now comes the predictable question: 
Huh? 
When I was setting up the MythTV wizard, it didn't seem to ALLOW me to choose more than one option via the "radio button"s (I think they're called).  
How do I go about telling MythTV that it CAN accept both inputs?
