Probably due to the order the cards were added hence their relative
recording priority to each other. encoder 1 (which cardinput is this?)
probably has a lower recpriority/preference than the card which is
being chosen instead.

Good - we have some listings on each source. Now, try:

mysql> SELECT cardid,cardtype,defaultinput FROM capturecard ORDER BY cardid;

mysql> SELECT cardid,cardinputid,sourceid,inputname,recpriority,preference
FROM cardinput ORDER BY recpriority;

These queries should shed light on how your cards and inputs are
configured and why one card is winning over the other. Do all channels
on all source have the same recpriority also? We need a level playing
field...
