Default Three recordings, back to back, only two show up on scheduler

I have several problems scheduling recordings. One of this problems (AFAIK) has been reported, but the newest SVN (February 20th: MediaPortal-svn--02-20-2007--12-23-Rev13031.exe) shows the same behavior, so I'm posting all of them.

1.- I have scheduled MP to record always on this channel "House". Fine, most of the times there are two episodes consecutive. It records both, the first one stops 20 minutes after the scheduled time which is what I've set up on the configuration. Then starts the second after a brief delay, which causes MP to miss several seconds (my wife doesn't care about the technical aspects, she just want this working ). It would be desirable that MP could detect that recordings are back to back and adjust post and pre times accordingly.

2.- Second problem. Today there are three episodes, and when I look at the EPG, they all appear with the red dot, signaling that they are going to be recorded. If I go back to my TV (not in full screen) and check the schedule, I only see the first two episodes, the third episode isn't listed. Now the question is what will happen with the third episode? Is it going to be recoded? Just in case I'm going to plug my VCR back in (WAF again ).

3.- Third problem, and this one has been reported and supposedly fixed. It shows several conflicts, every episode conflicts with the next one, presumably because the pre-post time; but the first two also conflict with a recording that will be done at about the same time but with a different tuner on a different channel.

I am happy to report that the third episode of House was recorded . It was listed as soon as MP started recording the second episode.

Also the issue where several fake recordings are created after midnight, when a show starts before midnight and ends later, is fixed in SVN .
