[mythtv-users] When Installing a second Pinnacle tune card, it's default configuration is analog, not the QAM Samsung my first card has.

With multiple cards you should see multiple instances of /dev/xxx devices
(/dev/video0, /dev/video1 etc.). I missed the early postings in this thread
but if this is a tuner shouldn't we be looking for something like
/dev/dvb/adapter0 rather than /dev/video0?

I suspect you have a dead card.. do you have another system you can use to
check it out?

It may be worth looking closely at the card for any obvious physical damage
or any debris that could be bridging any contacts or connections. I've
generally found PCI cards to be pretty robust (unless they are seriously
abused!)
