Thanks Mike, so how do I avoid being in "live TV" when she is watching 
something on TV?   Is there a difference between "Live TV" and just 
watching TV "live"? :)

Also is it a good idea to disable allowing MythTV to move livetv to 
another tuner?  I think the option is something like that.

Thanks!

Lee
