 At the moment mythtv will only allow you to choose
 /dev/dvb/adapterX/frontend0. (X=0,1,......etc)

 There are a few devices such as the HVR4000 and HVR3000 and others which
 have multiple frontends (frontend0 = DVB-S and frontend1 = DVB-T)

 at the moment you have to link to to another adapter which is a big hack
 such as:

 #mkdir /dev/dvb/adapter1
 #ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0
 #ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/net1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/net0
 #ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/dvr0
 #ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/demux0
