Actually, it only affects people who use multirec *and* LiveTV and use  
the multi-rec tuner as their first choice for LiveTV which rules out  
most people. (I have this set up, but when I enter LiveTV, it will  
choose 3 tuners before it hits a multirec one so I've never run into  
it.) Convincing a developer to set up their system this way to track  
down the problem and fix it may prove rather difficult.
