Have you selected the option 'prefer recording over live tv' option set? That's not the exact wording, but it's something like that. If have a master and slave backend, both with two tuners, and I have that option set and it always selects the last tuner in the slave backend for live tv, and the first tuner in the master for recordings. And yes, I too manually rearranged the tuner cardinput ID's to change mine around a bit (I have one PVR-250 that is bad and records mangled files, that though watchable, are not the greatest), so I can confirm that it works.
