Description
This patch fixes a shortcoming in TV::ChangeChannel? which presently doesn't detect if the new channel is unavailable on the current card due to a current recording or other LiveTV access.

This patch checks the current card for conflicts and if required, switches to the next available card that can tune the channel. It has most utility in systems with multiple tuners and in installations where there are multiple frontends,
