A 'source' defines the channels available to a single method of tuning, plus the
means of tuning them. Therefore, you /cannot/ use the same source for both prime
and non-prime channels, since by definition the lists of channels available will
be different. (If they are not, why are you bothering?)
Now, the fact that in your case the information for tuning the channels in one
source may be made available by manipulating the tuners set up for another
source is an entirely different matter. In principle this is no different than
having an STB which can be accessed both using Firewire or component.
