Just set the sistandard to 'avpid', and then stick the pids in the
pidcache with a bogus tableid. This way multiple audio and video
pids can be supported. All you have to do to TVRec is extend
SetupDTVSignalMonitor with the new tuningmode. Implementing a
signal monitor and streamdata classes should be relatively simple.
