 LiveTV is restricted to the same multiplex/tuner after the following
 sequence is followed.

  * During LiveTV select record with the 'r' key
  * Exit LiveTV
  * Return to LiveTV while the program is still recording

 The "Browse all channels" and "Avoid conflicts between live TV and
 scheduled shows" options are enabled.

 I have 2 ivtv recorders (tuners 1, 2) and 2 dvb recorders (tuners
 9,10,11,12). The 2 dvb recorders user multi-rec and are configured to
 support 2 recordings each. So in all I have tuners 1, 2, {9,10} and
 {11,12}.

 With no recordings in progress when I enter LiveTV it seems to almost
 always select tuner 12. When I press 'r' to record, exit and the return to
 LiveTV it will put me on tuner 11 which is the same dvb card/multiplex as
 tuner 12. At this point I can not change to any channel available to the
 dvb tuners even though tuners 9 and 10 are available. However two work-
 arounds exist.

 1. I can select channels available to my ivtv tuners 1 and 2. After I
 switch to one of those channels I can then change channels to any dvb
 channel.

 2. I can use Menu->Switch Input and force a change to tuner 9 or 10 and
 then everything works normal again.
