Sounds like a good job for a plugin MythDub or the like.

Oh, I agree it would be useful, but since you are going to personally
be there for the recording (ie. folks were thinking of it as a "manaul
recording now") a simple visit to the tuner status page of mythweb or
mythtv will tell you that the tuners are free and for how long.
True. I've managed to do it as a manual recording by binding an aux
input to a "bogus" channel. It never quite worked the way I thought
it should, however. IIRC I couldn't watch that "channel" in livetv...
I could only set a manual recording and then watch it once it started.
It was quite a PITA.
It's a hard choice actually. There is a push to make tools like
MythTV "do everything" -- and that's particularly important when
you put them in front of people who would find the suggestion of
running a video recording program or catting the /dev/video0 as out
of their experience. But no program can do everything, even all
your a/v needs, and so people prioritize.
Notice I'm not whining that it doesn't do it... merely suggesting
that it would be nice. If I had the time (stupid Ph.D!), I might
plink away at it, but right now I don't. Everyone has a priority on
what they think is most important.
That's the blessing/curse of open-source. You want it to everything.
Fortunately, it's usually doable.
