With R4, we've changed the modules are loaded for tuner cards. If you add a card or move cards around this will effect which card is /dev/videoX. This is especially true if you have PVR-x50. If you must past options to your card here is how to do it:

Code:
more /etc/modutils/KnoppMyth

This will tell you which files it uses to load the modules. I have my Pinnacle and a PVR-250 in one of my boxens and here is what my KnoppMyth file looks like:

Code:
include /etc/mythtv/modules/bttv0
include /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv
include /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv1


My 250 won't work with my board if it is in the first PCI slot. In the above configuration the Pinnacle is /dev/video0 and the 250 /dev/video1. I must set options for the Pinnacle to work and the 250 must be set to tuner 2. To accomplish this, I edit /etc/mythtv/modules/bttv0. Here is what it look like:

Code:
alias char-major-81-0 bttv
options bttv card=39,0 tuner=8,2

Another approach here is to add a file /etc/modutils/User
with the single line
Code:
options bttv card=39,0 tuner=8,2
