There is an example on the wiki of how to modify your menu to execute
something like xawtv instead of using the built-in LiveTV viewer if
you want to use your capture cards without recording anything from
them. It's limited in that you can't switch tuners (and limited to
whatever features your 3rd party viewer offers), but it will alert
Myth that the tuner is currently busy and won't try to record with it
when you're using it.
