I "think" that you can use the "input priority" field
in mythtv-setup to
achieve this.

Subject: Re: [ukha_d] Is there a MythTV Guru?





Confused? I don't want them non-visible, I want them to record by default
on
a specified tuner as the recording quality is superior on the other tuner.

Hi

You could make the duff channels non visible in the channel config page
from
under the settings in MythWeb.

I have a 4 tuner setup (2 single tuner cards and 2 dual tuner)

The 2 single tuners and 1 of the dual tuners are plugged into the Astra
2 LNB and the remaining tuner into the Astra 1 LNB

Since BBC tweaked the BBC1 HD settings a while back, the picture has
suffered break up, however, by chance I found that a recording on BBC3
HD (same parameters as BBC1 HD) on the dual tuner card had no picture
breakup, recording a test recording on BBC1 HD on this card was also
good picture.

Whilst I can manually set the preferred input to the desired card for
each recording schedule (and I have done for the main scheduled
recordings), is there any way to set a channel to a preferred input so
that the wife & kids can schedule recordings without having to think
like a geek?

I know I could configure the system to put the dual tuner on the Astra 2
and a single tuner on Astra 1 or fiddle about with sources and omit &
include different channels, but ideally looking for a simple tweak.

Thanks
