Found it!!

I'm grabbing EIT data for the radio channels and the backend it holding
the lock on the DVB card in such a way that sometimes it makes the
epgsnoop run hang totally, and sometimes just truncate.

Can someone post a copy of the script that checks for the tuner card being
busy please? (I think it actually looks for a cardid to be recording). I
recall it being discussed on the list but I can't find it :-(
