I'm happy to report that I'm back to full potential, able to record on
both cards, and somewhat embarrassed to admit that it was my own
stupid mistake. After deleting capture cards I set the ivtv card to
call the "channel-change.sh" instead of the "change-channel.sh". My
apologies for troubling the list whit something that I should have
paid closer attention to.
