Comment (by cpinkham):
For a patch like this to be accepted, there's a lot of behind the scenes
coding that would have to be done. This would include things like
handling if the user tried to change channels to an unavailable channel or
tried to start recording the current program on that channel. You'd have
to handle the case where the channel/tuner's status changes while the user
is browsing. The Available/Unavailable status would have to be available
via ProgramInfo::ToMap so theme designers could display this status as
they wanted. It would have to be optional as it doesn't make sense to us
to have this functionality since if you're gonna do this, you may as well
use the EPG. There are probably a few other situations you'd have to
handle for these unavailable channels/tuners, so don't think it's as
simple as checking to see if it's in use and displaying a message.
