Because the tuners change around (depending on configuration, as little
as when you change your system or even as much as every reboot), the
information is not stored when we record a show (because it would be
either meaningless or--worse--misleading in many (most?) situations).
Instead, we output a message in the backend log file that includes the
tuner in use when we start a recording.
