....
> You are correct, I do not understand how MythTV allocates tuners. If the
current implementation does not allow for dynamic tuner allocation, then
adding locking won't impact that limitation. It only enforces MythTV's use
of a tuner while it is using it.
I think you misunderstand. You '''will''' lose recordings if another app
already has the tuner in use (with a lock). So in some scenarios you
might win, but in others you have not improved your reliability (and that
does not even include the scheduling challenges when the number of tuners
changes at the time of the attempted recording).
