The HVR-1600 is configured as two video cards in MythTv: - analog side is an MPEG encoder card like ivtv. - digital side is a DVB device wih an S5H1409/1411 demodulator. The analog and digital sides of the 1600 can be used independently and simultaneously, so no need to set up anything special in MythTv.
