Thanks for looking into it.

The best fix to the problem with 'padding not being ignored in back to back recordings on separate muxes', would be to put back the option to 'Ignore padding for back to back recordings'. However, this issue is only a problem when trying to do back to back recordings on separate muxes on the same tuner. If the back to back recordings are on the same mux then padding is not a problem - the TV server already accepts these as not conflicting (obviously!).

At the moment the only work around to this problem with the padding conflict on back to back recordings on separate muxes, is to disable global padding and then to manually change every scheduled recordings padding in its settings screen (in the MP client gui) whether they are back to back recordings or not, which is a bit time consuming and easy to forget. Re-enabling the 'Keep conflict' option would make it easier as then only the padding of the conflicting back to back scheduled recordings need to be changed in their settings screen (in the MP client gui), and the global padding setting can be kept.

Of course, the 'Keep conflict' option should also be re-enabled so that non back to back recordings on separate muxes which are conflicting can still be recorded, or at least partially recorded, for those who like this option.
