[mythtv-users] More about "Error: offset>181"

I've been seeing a lot of this on a recent installation running master; 
  it doesn't seem to have any effect other than obscuring useful log 
entries but I'd like to stop it.

It seems to happen during recordings of DVB-T radio, probably when other 
channels are also recording from the same mux.  Attached is the clearest 
demonstration I've seen of that.

In an earlier thread 
(http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/573703#573703) 
dekarl suggested:

...but I'm not sure how to do this.  On this box, using EIT, I have one 
single-tuner card and one twin-tuner usb-stick, all set with 5 VTs, Wait 
for SEQ, Don't open on demand, Don't use for active scan.  All 15 VTs 
have tuning delay set to 100 ms by direct writing to the DB.  Is 
DB-poking needed for Karl's suggestion too?

New kernels and earlier experience have made me reluctant to experiment 
with tuner settings, but it would be nice to get rid of these messages.
