[mythtv-users] Adding new HDHR, no Max recordings option

Wow...I just about had a brain hemorrhage trying to add a new HDHR
tuner to my system. I'm beyond lost. I'm running 29.1 by the way.

I already have two HDHR's with two tuners each...each tuner setup with
two virtual tuners for multirec. It's been a while since I added the
existing cards. To be honest, I'm not sure if I was still on 0.28.1
when I added those.

When I go into the capture cards screen in mythtv-setup now the
"Recording Options" page is completely missing the "Max recordings"
option altogether, even for my existing cards that are already set to
2, and have two capturecard records for each tuner. As a result, if I
try to add the new HDHR I get only one capturecard record per tuner
with a reclimit of 1.

Totally lost. This may be related however, and I have no clue what
this is all about: When I run mythtv-setup I get messages like this:

When I actually go into the capture cards screen I get this which
includes by new card:

I have no idea if that used to happen or not, nor if that has anything
to do with this. Has something changed around all of this? I'm beyond
lost.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Tom
