Okay, I hope that I'm just blind and there's a real simple solution to this:

I can't get my 2nd Leadtek DTV2000H to work. It gets recognised ok

It shows up alright in the backend configuration, just like the 1st card. However, the thing I can't get done is assign the correct "DVB device number".

It warns me that 0 is already in use (for the other card), but I can't change it to 1. The pull down menu doesn't open, I can't type in 1, I just don't know how.

Anyone know how and where ? Please help me as this is driving me nuts !!!

Okay, took me a lot of googleing and I was already worried that I might have to fiddle around with udev rules (which I haven't got the faintest clue about), but in the end it turned out to be pretty simple:

To get the tuner work initially the

/etc/modprobe.d/options

file had to be edited to include the line

options cx88xx card=51

To get the second card working the 51 has to be added twice, separated by a comma. So now the line is

options cx88xx card=51,51

and the card can be setup as dvb device 1 in the backend configuration
