Thanks for the clarification. Seems to be counter intuitive since one 
would expect when the tuner is not recording it is 'passive'. Oh well.

Anyhow, then it surely appears to be a bug since it is not working for 
me when the tuner is idle or not. I posted the '-v eit' when the tuner 
is off (backend is idle) and no EPG is collected, however running 
epgsnoop at the same time *does* collect data. This also is the same 
behavior when the tuner is on - i.e. no EPG data collected, no o/p from 
the backend either. Seems like the thread is not running properly to do 
the EPG gathering.
