There are three rows in the capturecard table:

cardid��videodevice�������������cardtype��������defaultinput
1���������������0�����������������������DVB�������������DVBInput
2���������������1�����������������������DVB�������������DVBInput
3���������������2�����������������������DVB�������������DVBInput

The cardinput also contains three rows:

cardinputid�������������cardid��sourceid��������inputname
1�����������������������1���������������1���������������DVBInput
2�����������������������2���������������2���������������DVBInput
3�����������������������3���������������3���������������DVBInput

I haven't made any changes to card or channel priorities. �Can you tell me 
where I'd check those settings? �I just looked at the channel table and the 
recpriority field is 0 for all channels. �Is that what you were referring to?

The really strange thing is that this morning I managed to record two 
programmes simultaneously, couldn't record a third due to a supposed conflict 
but could watch a programme using the third DVB card!

Steve.
