I am having a hard time getting 2 tuners to work. Both of them work on their own. When I add a second capture source and schedule 2 recordings, the first recording works fine, but the second says that it's recording, but the file size stays at zero. I found an old thread that solved a similar problem using a hacked nativeutilities.dll file, but that file was removed because it only worked with an old release.
I have Hauppauge PVR250 and PVR150MCE cards.
Any help would be appreciated.

You've set one as device #1, and the other as device #2?

Yes, and I've tried reversing the order as well.

Try to force both to record, then post your GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log file.

I had a similar probleam and I resolved it by assigning specific channels to each card. Before I thought to do that I would both cards record but one was always either totally dark or just audio and no video. wo

I sorted my mess, by removing all from config, then restart.
Back into config, add a device, and set it as source #1, update the EPG, and exit.
Back into config, add a device, set it also as source #1 (because it's a different tuner than the first), update the EPG, exit.
I added the devices in the order they're listed in device mangler.
You can never have enough tuners!

The problem is resolved. I am not sure what specifically I did to resolve it. I had a single tuner configuration that worked perfectly before, and just added a second tuner to it. After my first post and sub's request for the log file, I set up both tuners so that I could create the log file. Something that I did during this time resulted in losing all my scheduled programming (but not the recordings database). I am thinking that with a fresh install (or resetting the config as reboot suggessted), everything would have worked fine.
Thanks to everybody for their help. I just wish I knew what I did, just it case it happens to me again.
