Instead of a PVR-250 and WinTV card.  I have two BT878 TV Tuner cards.

How do I set the BTTV section in modules.conf to use two different tuner type?

I did tried separating the two tuner type with a comma like below but only 
one of the TV tuner card would work.

alias char-major-81-1 bttv
options bttv card=74,24 radio=1,0 tuner=17,6 pll=0,0


Thanks

If you're running a relatively recent version of ivtv (since about
September), it's really easy because the ivtv module accepts a tuner
type argument, as does the bttv module. This is what my modules.conf
looked like back when I was running a pvr-250 and an ATI TV Wonder:

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
alias char-major-81 videodev

# IVTV options

alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
options ivtv tuner=2
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
add below ivtv tuner
add above ivtv msp3400 saa7115

# BTTV Options

alias char-major-81-1 bttv
options bttv card=63 radio=0 tuner=8 pll=0 bttv_verbose=2 bttv_debug=0
options tvmixer debug=1 devnr=1
options btaudio dsp1=2 dsp2=3 mixer=2 analog=0 debug=2
add above bttv msp3400 btaudio
