[mythtv-users] Configuring conflicting tuners?

I thought I remembered reading this in the docs somewhere years ago
but can't seem to find it now.

Is it possible to mark two tuners as being in conflict with one
another due to needing a shared resource?

I've recently switched from Comcast to Verizon FiOS and I'm trying
(perhaps in vain) to come to a more reasonable configuration which has
a higher success rate at actually recording what I tell it to.  I have
one Motorola QIP 7100-2 STB that I'm connected to via firewire.  Some
channels come in just fine and others not at all.  I don't know if
this is a 5C issue or something in my configuration.

Anyway, I've also hooked the composite out of the STB into the
composite in of a PVR 150 and would like to configure this with a
separate video source that lists just the channels that I haven't been
able to get via firewire, but I need to tell MythTV not to schedule a
recording on the PVR 150 at the same time as a recording on firewire.
I thought there was a way to do this, but I can't seem to find it in
the menus, the docs, the wiki, or on Google.

Thanks,

Eric
