moving the PVR 150 source to the last priority

I have a PVR 150 and a PVR 500 now all working great since I got the cable strength input right.

Sage does a great job switching between tuners, except for 1 small clitch that I have found.

I have both coax from the street and Svideo from the cable box plugged into my PVR 150. If I am recording just 1 show, Sage seems to always use the 150first. So, when I try to watch something via the Svideo from the cable box while recording 1 other show, Sage will not because the 150 is already being used. I think I need to somehow put the 150 as the last priority of the 3 tuners, thus allowing me to use Svideo when up to 2 tuners (PVR 500) are being used.

Any solution?

Gary

the setting you need is "encoder_merit" in sage.properties. YOu can specify the order you would prefer Sage use the tuners. If you set the 150 as 0 (zero) and the 500's tuners as 1 and 2, then Sage would normally use the 500's tuners and leave the 150 free as long as possible.
