I think you got it there... I think I have Tuner1 set for /dev/video1. So I have should have 2 Tuner 0's and each should be /dev/tuner0 and /dev/tuner1. I think thats what you're trying to say. I'm not sure how to see if IVTV is getting both cards but I think "dmesg | grep IVTV" should do it and I see:
 
ivtv: Autodetected WinTV PVR 150 card (iTVC16 based)
 : chip found @ 0xc0 (ivtv i2c driver #0)
ivtv: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=(tuner unset), addr=60]
 : chip found @ 0xc2 (ivtv i2c driver #0)
ivtv: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=(tuner unset), addr=61]
ivtv: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=tda9887, addr=43]
ivtv: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=tveeprom, addr=50]
ivtv: This is the first unit of a PVR500
So there's the first card.
 
ivtv: Autodetected WinTV PVR 150 card (iTVC16 based)
 : chip found @ 0xc2 (ivtv i2c driver #1)
ivtv: i2c attach to card #1 ok [client=(tuner unset), addr=61]
ivtv: i2c attach to card #1 ok [client=tda9887, addr=43]
ivtv: i2c attach to card #1 ok [client=tveeprom, addr=50]
ivtv: i2c attach to card #1 ok [client=cx25840[50], addr=44]
ivtv: i2c attach to card #1 ok [client=wm8775[50], addr=1b]
ivtv: This is the second unit of a PVR500
And here's tuner 2 (although its the same card.)

 
I just have one more question. Even though there is only one coaxial cable coming into the card because theres only 1 cable input, I still can have 2 streams there, right? Or do I somehow need another cable input?

Check that the ivtv driver detects your PVR-500 as two
PVR-150s.  Check that you can get data from both
tuners by doing a "cat /dev/videoX > test.mpg", where
X is first 0, and then 1.  If not, then it's an ivtv
problem.

Also, check that in the MythTV setup that you used
"Tuner 0" for both /dev/video0 and /dev/video1.
Despite the fact there is a "Tuner 1" entry, it isn't
used with a PVR-500 (because the PVR-500 is seen by
the ivtv driver as two PVR-150s).

Can't help you with the LiveTV issue.  I rarely get
pauses when using it, and when I do, they're once per
half hour, or even once per hour.
