Thanx very much! That's the answer I was looking for. But .... unfortunately
that doesn't work. Recording via timer setup use the second, manually
started recording use the first card. I only use free-to-air access, no CI-modul or
something like that. So the Ca parameter for all channels is unchanged as
from the download section.

Could that probably be caused by my configuration: The first card is a full
featured DVBs, second WinTV Nova shall only do recording?
