Comment:

 This is a restriction on the way MythTV works. You can get around it by
 selecting the "LiveTV" recording that is being created for the first
 device. You can watch that on other devices at the same time, thus saving
 tuners. However if the first device that started watching it exits from
 LiveTV the recording will be ended and others will also end.

 You can also set a recording and while it is being recorded you can watch
 that recording from multiple devices without using extra tuners. Just make
 sure to select from the recordings list, not from LiveTV.
