The critical distinction being that:

A MythTV Video Source is /not/ a Schedules Direct Lineup.

Multiple MythTV video sources may share a single Schedules Direct 
lineup.  Therefore, set up one lineup with all the channels and 2 video 
sources--each with only the channels available on the input to which 
that source is connected.

(So, yes, Cecil's approach is perfect, and it will work! :)
