Gscanbus shows only the first found adapter by default. You need a
patched version of gscanbus with a command line parameter that lets you
select a different bus or "port".

I suppose you would point Kino to the right adapter by changing the
video1394 device file name. But there may be other possibilities; I
never tried Kino myself.
