[QUOTE="nate, post: 4553, member: 10474"] We had quite a discussion on the dvbowners forum about how to distinguish multiple identical tuner from each other. In the end we decided that the proper way to tell which capture device belongs to each tuner device is to try to connect them. If the drivers adhere to the standards then they should only connect if they are from the same card. Then you can just use the DisplayName for each tuner internally and still show the friendly name to the user. see [url]http://forums.dvbowners.com/index.php?act=ST&f=26&t=1118&hl=&view=findpost&p=13182[/url] I don't have a reference to any official docementation. This is the way DVB Web Scheduler does it, and is the way DigitalWatch will do it in the next release. If you want to see some of my new code DW then let me know.
