EIT disable per card

Is there a way through the database or other of selectively disabling
EIT scanning? I have 2 NOVA-t 500's and a usb2 NOVA-t and at the
moment am rebooting every morning as the eit crawl through the night
is causing the 500's drivers to break. The linuxtv site has this as an
acknowledged problem.
If there isn't what would be the best way about doing this and if I
did get my hands dirty and implement it is likely to be accepted?
My initial thoughts were an extra checkbox on the capturecard screen
and subsequent setting in the capturecard setting (set to on by
default to cover existing behaviour) which the eit crawl checks to see
if the card is available for crawl.

Try at Mythtvsetup -> General -> -> -> EIT Scanner Options -> Cross
Source EIT

Isn't that for when you have multiple video sources

eg
2x DVB-T in video source freeview
1xdvb-s in video source sky

I thought it meant if selected the eit stuff would move between the
two groups

Or do you mean that i should create a videosource called say nova500
and one called novausb
tick the box and enable eit for novausb only?

You may be right. Regrettably I just deleted your later post. My setup
is simpler but the 'Cross source' thing looked relevant - and perhaps
not in the most obvious place.

That won't help. Cross source EIT is used to write EIT updates if they
come from a different videosource the updating channel is on. It makes
only sense for special setups.
It shouldn't make a difference for Tim since he should have only a
single videosource.

You don't have to do the dirty work I've done it already. See ticket
2741.
