There is only limited support so far for PCIe DVB devices, I'm afraid.
You might be lucky to find a supported dual DVB-T.  And it may need a
later version of things than is currently supported.

I am having problems getting my new TeVii S470 PCIe DVB-S2 card to
work - if I install the drivers from their site, it seems to install a
full new version of V4L which is using a newer V4L API version than
MythTV 0.22 supports (5.1 versus 5.0).  This seems to make all my
existing DVB-T tuners stop working under MythTV, although they do
still work with Kaffeine.  I am hoping that MythTV 0.23 will fix this,
but I am having other problems getting Mythbuntu 10.4 RC working (the
new video drivers do not seem to like my having an old Nvidia 6150 GPU
on my motherboard as well as the 8600 GS that I am actually using).

So if you do find a dual DVB-T PCIe card that says it has Linux
support, check it out very carefully.  It still may not work until you
are on a newer kernel and newer MythTV version.
