I have a little more experience with it now. You press "Y" while you are watching TV (in other words after you press Watch TV). It simply selects the next available capture card. I don't see any capability in mythfrontend to jump to a particular card.
For example, I have a system I'm building right now with 4 capture cards. Mythfrontend selects card 1 when I start it up. Pressing "Y" will cycle to card 2, then 3, then 4, then back to 1. If I start a recording mythbackend will take the first available card; card 1 in my case. Then mythfrontend will only cycle between cards 2, 3 and 4. Starting a second recording will take the next available card and mythfrontend will only cycle between the remaining 2 cards. I'll take a look at the priority settings mentioned by Ralph and Brad.
