Solution A - Stop using LiveTV.

Solution B - Use the 'avoid conflicts between livetv and recordings' 
option, which causes livetv to select its recorder from the bottom of 
the list.

Solution C - Add each tuner with one virtual tuner.  Then go back and 
add in additional virtual tuners, ensuring the three physical tuners are 
the first three that will be selected.
