[mythtv-users] Firewire channel change script with SA4250HD

[Mitch Gore]

you would just need to create two sources for the firewire source and the
analog.  For the firewire have all channels that can be captured in the
listings and the rest on the channels inthe analog only pvr source.  Then
myth will switch between the two.
