Multiple nVidia DualTVs in Sage

For whatever reason nVidia gave BeyondTV permission to post these drivers (Why doesn't SageTV get first crack at posting these? I know they did the initial work on these drivers first with nVidia.):

Driver support for Multiple nVidia DualTV
I have confirmed these work in SageTV Beta 6.016 RC1. I have 2 x nVidia Dual TV tuners in my Sage server and after updating to these drivers I had 4 simultaneous recordings going.

There were actually 6 tuners showing up in "Add new sources". I DID NOT use the nVidia DualTV YUV tuners. (2 of these show up.) Use the nVidia Dual TV tuner, Dual TV tuner 2, Dual TV tuner #2 and Dual TV tuner 2#2. Just go past the previews if they don't work for you. So far I've been running for the past 2 hours with no issues.

They snoooozed, they loooozed

If they had just released these drivers a week ago, I would have bought 2 nVidia DualTV's after my PVR-500 type-B encounter. I wasn't happy with the PVR-500 type-b's and wanted to try the dualTV's, but I knew that everybody said that the driver only supported 1 card, not 2 like I needed. So, I found some PVR-500 type-A's and got them instead of the DualTV's.

Not that I'm aware of. Sage already is able to do color calibration with them. I didn't have any color issue so I never had to adjust them.

Has anyone tried these drivers with a Nforce 2 chipset and a HD tuner card. I am worried that this combo (HDTV = Vbox 151) wont work.
thanks.

This should be a sticky, I thought I would have to install Media Center Edition to get this card working.
