I haven't tried the cange card option only the change input... Will try today!
But, when I select PIP mode, the PVR-250 starts to play in pip with my DVB-S in font ok, i cannot change the active tuner from the PIP menu....
Maybe change input will help this?
any thoughts?
my another problem is that recordings done with my PVR-250 seem way too oversaturated - and i'ts def. not a playback problem... as the recording itself is oversaturated in color.... (checked on 2 diff. pc-s).....
thanks in advance.

It is completely possible to switch in Live TV from a non-DVB card to
a DVB card, or vice versa. Press Y to chance cards, and C to change
inputs ( i.e. tuner/comp/svid on PVR350) on the current card. You can
alter which appears first by altering the card's/input's priority I
think.
As long as channels are setup correctly in myth (if using 0.18 and a
channel scan is successful you are almost there) you must ensure that
the XMLTV ids are suitable, and that the start channel for each input
is set to a channel that actually exists (DVB channels can have
non-consecutive numbers when can be confusing).
I find using phpMyAdmin now invaluable in locating and resolving
problems on my myth box, especially when channels are not behaving
themselves.
