That's the funny thing.  I did both "Delete all tuners" and "Delete all
tuners on <host>" just to be sure since I can never remember which one is
the right one to do.  Last night, I kept getting the same screen as above
on mythweb.

Last night, I was running mythtv-setup as my login user, not mythtv (my
mythbackend user).  I had forgotten about this step.  This morning, I fixed
that and I also rebooted just in case.  The dummy tuners are gone.  So one
of the two things fixed it.  I now have:

Encoder Status

Encoder 1 [ HDHOMERUN : 12345DC4-0 ] is local on myhost and is not
recording.
Encoder 3 [ HDHOMERUN : 12345DC4-1 ] is local on myhost and is not
recording.
Encoder 5 [ HDHOMERUN : 12345DC4-2 ] is local on myhost and is not
recording.

So it's fixed.

Thanks for the help, Mike and Gary!

Jerry
