12572	Non-tunable inputs always generate tuning timeout message spam when watching live tv	William L. DeRieux IV <williamderieux@…>	jpoet	"Currently in function TuningSignalCheck from file mythtv/libs/libmythtv/tv_rec.cpp

Even if an input is not tuned (such as composite/svideo, etc), an OSD message will be presented on each channel change that a timeout had expired waiting for a tuning lock.

Since a tuning lock will never occur on a composite input you will always get the message(s).

The simplest solution is just to remove the OSD message altogether (while stilling logging to file/database).
I have created a patch that does that:
https://github.com/neoh4x0r/mythtv/commit/41536d7a8437c8aee8becf43a6112d4c55d8c181

A more complicated solution would be to detect if the input is actually tunable and then enable/disable the message as appropriate.
Note: that might be something as trivial as adding an option when using mythtv-setup to setup the various inputs -- you could have a boolean flag that indicates if the input is tunable.

Granted this is not a critical/severe issue, but it is a very annoying issue that will always happen on non-tunable inputs."	Patch - Feature	closed	minor	0.28.2	MythTV - Video/OSD Rendering	Master Head	low	Won't Fix			0
