Comment(by danielk):

 The isbusy-v1 patch is not by any means a final implementation. I'm pretty
 sure TVRec::GetFreeInputs() can be handled more efficiently by the master
 backend without requiring the extra backend command GET_FREE_INPUTS.

 The code is aware of input groups and the exception for inputs that share
 a digital tuner. However there are as of yet no multiplex restrictions. I
 will probably add that as additional info to GetBusyInput(). Also, all the
 added functions in TVRec are returning QStringList's, they will return
 proper structs/classes later (which will have to & from string list
 functions, like ProgramInfo does).

 As proof of concept I added the "Switch Input" and "Switch Source" input
 switching submenus to the LiveTV menu. As of yet, the "Y"/"C" keys are
 still not input group aware, and there is no "Switch Source" key. "Switch
 Input" presents a list of all the available card + input options
 available, while "Switch Source" presents only one input option per video
 source, and lists these by the video source name. "Switch Input" is what
 developers generally want when testing while "Switch Source" is what users
 generally want in input switching.
