Ah I see, do your channels have a "Video Source"  in the backend setup (or
sourceid in channels table in DB)?

looks like double tuner entry could be the "Max recordings:" setting in
capture card -> recording options. This produces extra entries and allows
multiple recording off one tuner as long as the recorded channels are on the
same multiplex. Mine is a dual tuner and has 6 entries in the DB all up and
my "Max recordings" setting is 3 for each tuner, so it adds up.
