[mythtv] Dual tuners, LiveTV, why must LiveTV always be interrupted?

[Joe Votour]

Isaac,

Thanks for the pointer in the right direction.  Just
by messing around with the value of
nextRecording->cardid (just set it to 2, rather than
1), I've been able to watch LiveTV while recording
another program (well, something recorded, I need to
make sure it's the right thing), without being asked
to change the channel.

This is up for debate, but I'd like some ideas (from
you, and other people on the list) as to how this
situation should be handled...  Should it be automatic
that in a multi-tuner system that the recording be
done on the second tuner when watching LiveTV?  Or
would people like to have this seen as a configuration
option?

At any rate, don't expect this in before the release
of 0.12, I want to make sure that I do it right and
test it fully (which means that I'll even rip a tuner
out of  my MythTV machine to make sure it works with
only one tuner).  That, and I pretty much only get
weekends to code.

Thanks,
Joe
