When I've seen USB disconnections with two USB2 Nova-T devices, I was getting things like /dev/dvb/adapter0, /dev/dvb/adapter2, /dev/dvb/adapter3, i.e. adapter1 missing from where one of them had been originally before disconnecting and then being reassigned as adapter3! in this situation, vdr only sees the first DVB device because it starts at adapter0 and stops counting when the next number doesn't exist.
