Tuner Activity cannot access live tv

I cannot access live tv - I keep getting an error that says "Your live tv tuner was taken by master at 5:21p Sun 5/18. To time to 360 FNCHD select an option below.  Press exit to return to to 9981 "DTV

9981 is a random movie called Novocain that says it's recording.  I cannot stop the recording or

Do you have satellite or one of the streaming-only options?

What are the models of box(es) you are using?

What troubleshooting have you tried?

Are you using a regular antenna (with AM21 or LCC) with your DirecTV equipment?
