I don't think that's correct. The other devices are not card inputs, they are 
outputs. /dev/video0 would be the mpeg output, /dev/video24 is the encoder 
pcm audio and /dev/video32 would be the encoder YUV, at least according to 
the boot messages from ivtv.

This assumes the PVR is the first card, increment all the devices by 1 if it's 
the second card etc.

But that doesn't change that fact that what you said is essentially correct as 
far as the primary card device is concerned. 

I suspect the OP mis-typed, since if he has /dev//video24 and /dev/video32 the 
first device would have to be /dev/video0, he would have 25 and 33 if the 
first was actually /dev/video1.
