I'm starting to feel bad about littering the developers list with so many messages on this topic, since I'm fairly certain the issue is not all that important, but... The idea to use an EXEC_TV to launch live TV works fine, except that it lacks (I think) the feature to start recording whatever you're watching when you hit the record button. Also, what happens when the backend wants to grab the tuner?
