How do channel lineups work?

I'll be installing my 2nd HDHR unit this weekend, giving me a total of 5 ATSC tuners (OTA only). I haven't upgraded to the latest firmware yet, but the current unit gets a better signal on Tuner0 than on Tuner1 or the HVR-1600.

Should I be creating a separate lineup for each of the tuners?
Will this help with the padding issues I've been experiencing?
Am I correct in that the way to set up a new lineup is to completely shut down BTV and run it's setup?
Can each lineup have the same channels?
How do they look in the guide?

Basically I'm asking (as per the title) how do channel lineups work and what are the benefits?


Thanks!
