I would have rather not done it this way, but I can't find another way to request reconsideration. ---------Response to Ticket #10043---------------- When configured properly the HDHR treats its tuners as virtual tuners. Locking them allows MythTV to retain an exclusive hold on a tuner so alternate access methods don't euthanize recordings. If there is another tuner available, the HDHR will allow it to grab it, otherwise the request will fail. When MythTV doesn't lock the tuners, even if there are open tuners it is quite likely that recordings will be truncated. The only time you need MythTV to explictly fail over to a new tuner is if multiple HDHR devices are in the pool. While this would be a great feature, the scope is far greater than just fixing how MythTV works with the HDHR.
