2250 encoder merit question

[dvd_maniac]

I have an HDHR, 2xHD-PVR's and the 2250 with 4 EPG's setup(2 for QAM and 2 for Analog)
I want to make the HDHR's 2 QAM tuners as the highest priority followed by the 2250's 2 QAM tuners then the HD-PVRs and finally the 2250's 2 Analog sources.
Is this possible or is the QAM and Analog tuners of the 2250 indistinguishable with regards to encoder merit?

I don't own a 2250, but you should be able to tell by looking at your Sage.properties file. Do you see separate mmc/encoders/xxxx/video_capture_device_name entries for the digital and analog tuners? I'm guessing you will, if you can configure them separately in Sage. So just find the corresponding mmc/encoders/xxxx/encoder_merit entries and edit them appropriately (while Sage is not running, of course).

The QAM and Analog are indistinguishable as they are just different inputs to the same hybrid tuner. The 2 hybrid tuners on the card can have different merits, but there's no merits for the different inputs. It does make it difficult to manage the merits across the system.
