If the vidb and vidc (ts1 / ts2) bridge streams each single channel 
correctly, but not both together then this is either a sram 
configuration issue (the risc engine's workspace is being corrupted by 
another risc channel), or your system has a pcie compatibility issue.

I've seen both of these issues in the past.

I don't have a hardware product with demodulators on vidb and c, so 
that's not something I can repro.

Can you dual boot the same system under windows and remove any pcie 
compatibility doubts?
