Yet this is clearly not the case in my example. The slave's tuner
always is selected first for watching live tv.
Have you selected the option 'prefer recording over live tv' option set?
That's not the exact wording, but it's something like that.
Would love to find that...
Is it in mythtv-setup or just the regular setup in mythfrontend?
My Mythbackend is also the frontend that I sit at most of the time
and since it reaches out and grabs the slave's tuner first
I end up putting all that traffic on my local network. This hasn't
been a significant problem but its an annoyance I'd like
to clear up.
From Bruce's before and after posts in this thread:
-----
If the avoid conflict with the scheduler is checked, it ignores
hostnames and chooses the highest numbered card available. "Y" still
counts up and wraps.
------
The exact wording in frontend settings:
Avoid conflicts between live TV and scheduled shows.
If enabled, live TV will choose a tuner card that is less likely to have
scheduled recordings rather than the best card available.
