Re: priorities in streamdev

Hi Frank,

my first (and also not nice) fix on my dev system was to detach the
current receiver before calling cDevice::GetDevice. But this is also
only a quickfix because when a timer records, the live tv will be
stopped because of the priority.

My first not-quickfix idea was to add a additional boolean parameter
to the cDevice::GetDevice method, for convenience with a default value
(e.g. detachIfNecessary). If this value is true, the method would
detach the receiver. If this value is false, the method wouldn't
detach. With a value of false, the Method would still be a query
method.

Regards, Rainer
