Correct, except that the CineS2 V6 only has TAB2 and TAB3 on board.


Btw., I also added the module parameter adapter_alloc, which lets you
specifiy how many adapters are to be allocated:

0 = one adapter per io if modules are present
1 = one adapter for each tab on which a module was detected
2 = one per tab even if no modules were detected
3 = one adapter for all devices of one card

If you use adapter_alloc=3 for a config like above (2 tuners 2 CAMS)
you will get all the devices in one /dev/dvb/adapterX/ 
and most programs should now work with CI out of the box (at least
with the first tuner) if the redirections are set properly.
