Is there a way to have tvheadend release the tuners when idle? I currently use a script to download the EPG from a particular channel via a cronjob and currently I have to have it stop tvheadend first as it cannot take control of the tuner.
Another way of doing this would be having tvheadend tune to the required channel via a command/script, then the script that grabs the EPG could run. Is there a way of controlling tvheadend via a terminal?
