Pretty sure this doesn't happen if you have MultiRec set up - at
least, I think that's the reason I've never seen what you're
describing. I've always been able to sit down at another frontend,
pull up LiveTV and watch any channel on the tuned Mux without having
to stuff about with the Recordings list (I've never actually USED that
ability for anything, but in testing, it always worked)

I've never tried it with more frontends than virtual tuners, though,
so you may well be correct.

At any rate, it sounds like he only needs to be able to use it on one
frontend at once?
