I had a similar problem until I understood the setup screens properly. I
expect you've got them set up the same way I had initially.
It's setting up "Video Sources" and "Input Connections" properly.
Video Sources is only a place to make a "friendly" name for an input
connection and to set up XMLTV properly. It should be called things like:
"Cable" - the cable connection on your tuner card
"Composite" - the composite connector on your tuner card
Input Connections links these "friendly" names to actual physical
connections on the video card.
/dev/video (Composite 0) -> Composite
.
.
/dev/video (Tuner 0) -> Cable
.
.
You probably have all the physical inputs on this page pointing to the same
Video Source. That's what I did initially, as I thought a Video Source was
the tuner card itself, not the specific connections ON the video card.
Myth just takes the first name it finds in Input connections that matches
whatever source you want to record from (i.e. Cable) and starts recording.
If all inputs are linked to "Cable" then in my case, it would start
recording from Composite 0 until I fixed the links.
Hopefully that makes sense.
