---------------------------------------
The HDHomeRun supports arbitrary PID filtering:

format: hdhomerun_config <device id> set /tuner<n>/filter <filter>

eg: hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF set /tuner0/filter "0x0000-0x1FFF"
hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF set /tuner0/filter "0x0000 0x0030-0x0033 0x1FFB"

When filtering by PID the stream is filtered but otherwise unmodified.
The filter is cleared to pass-all (0x0000-0x1FFF) when a set channel
command is received.
---------------------------------------

So you tell it what to filter out and it sends it all to you. The
question is, how does multirec handle it. Does it want separate
streams for each program (it doesn't appear the HDHR does that). Or
does it just expect a single stream for all chosen channels and then
use pid filters on the myth side to split it into multiple streams (I
see no reason why that wouldn't work with the HDHR if it were
implemented in myth).
