Now by accident I stopped the backend and thought about starting it verbose, but instead of doing a sudo service mythbackend stop & start I just ran "mytbackend" on it's own. Tuners now work in Myth? , did try starting as a service again and the tuners are all busy again? Is this some sort of permissions issue with the tuners? Not quite sure where to look? any hints

Perhaps your tuners are not actually ready for use by the time your init system starts mythbackend on boot.
