Multi-Tuner Digital setup with Motorola DTC2000 Plugin problems

I made the same post in the thread for the Plugin, but thought most people wouldn't see it, so here goes again:

I had the multi tuner plugin set up and working on 2 seperate machines, but decided to make some changes in my PVR setup. I moved 3 of my tuners from the machine at our HDTV to a storage/tuner server in a closet (hopefully this will cobber some heat issues we are having in the HDTV PC.

The old configuration had one tuner in my HTPC with a cable box connected, using com1 to a DCT2k cable box, and 2 tuners on analog cable. I also had 2 network encoders on another PC, with a cable box on one with the plugin, and the other analog cable.

When I re-setup the systems, I dropped 3 tuners in the server, 2 PVR2000 boards with digital cable, and one analog on a Adaptec Video-Oh, the 2 digital cable boxes are connected to com1 & com2. For the life of me, I can't get the multi-tuner plugin to control the 2nd box at all. I've made the .ini edit, and called my 2nd box Conexant, and set it to port 2, and left the StubDevice entry alone. The box on the 1st tuner works and changes, but the 2nd never changes at all.

I also edited my sage.properties so that device_name=Conexant, but still no joy. Anybody got a multi-tuner setup ini & sage.properties file I can look at to see what I'm doing wrong? I'm about at the end of my rope, an missed several shows tonight that's going to get me killed by the other half...

Is anybody out there using multiple cable boxes with serial hookups with one PC out there? If you are, how'd you actually get it to work?
