Hi anguston,

I too use Mythtv on the same box as Squeezeserver, and contemplated the
same requirements you mention, but it just seemed to have too many
potential issues. 

You can ask myth to only lock the card when in use, but this causes
issues if rely on the EPG program guide. Currently dvbserver.pl locks
the frontend while it is running, so myth would not be able to open the
card. While it is feasible to change this behaviour, there is still no
clean way to get dvbserver to relinquish the adapter if myth wants to
record.

For me, the best solution was to get a cheap (£15 at the time)
Hauppauge USB DVB-T adapter and dedicate this to DVB radio, leaving the
other adapters for myth. Granted this isn't so attractive if you are
looking to use DVB-S.

Incidentally, for anyone wondering, I still plan add station logo
support and make this a proper plugin in future, but its some time off
right now due to other commitments. 

Regards,

Graham
