This is a new message, that in part is a follow-up to an earlier comment I made in a post with the subject line: 
   SECOND card in addition to the Hauppauge HVR-2250?

To repeat/rephrase...   

I don't think my box's program schedule data is working correctly.  
I DO have a trial subscription at schedulesdirect.org, but there just doesn't seem to be enough and enough accurate program data to merit a subscription.  I suspect I have something set up wrong or not at all. 

Here's what settings I do have: 

-----
Under the MythTV Backend Setup: 

4.  Video Sources 
    (New video source) 
    (Delete all video sources) 
    Broadcast 
    Cable 

When either Broadcast or Cable is selected, 5/6ths of the data is identical: 

Listings Grabber:  North American (schedulesdirect.org) (Internal) 
User id: xxxx.xxxx at xxxxx.xxx 
Password: xxxxxx 
Data Direct Lineup:  Comcast-Cable-Cable-55406- MN22623:- 
x   Perform EIT Scan                    (it IS checked) 
Channel Frequency Table:  "us-bcast"  or  "us-cable"     <== The only difference between the two video sources. 

----- 
5. Input connections: 
[DVB: /dev/adapter0/frontend0] (DVB Input) -> Broadcast 
[DVB: /dev/adapter2/frontend0] (DVB Input) -> Cable  

----- 
BTW, for those of you who understand this thing, here's some more data: 

dmesg | grep -i haup
[ 6.693488] CORE saa7164[0]: subsystem: 0070:8851, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 2250 [card=7,autodetected]
[ 6.889861] CORE cx23885[0]: subsystem: 0070:7801, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 1800 [card=2,autodetected]
...and two more lines.

** Anybody have an idea as to if and what I may have configured wrong?
