We fixed the problem with SourceTV taking up a real slot on the server, but there is a bug with this if you set tv_enable from a .cfg or script file. To be able to run with SourceTV and have it not take up a player slot, you need to have +tv_enable 1 on your command line rather than setting it with a .cfg after the server has started.
This will be fixed with the Server tag beta.
