Hello Dave
You have two recordings scheduled to start at 12 noon on 29 November:
[2014-11-29 11:59:04,750] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [INFO ] - Scheduler: Time to record 15 WBRADT 11:59 AM-12:30 PM Growing a Greener World
[2014-11-29 11:59:05,800] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [INFO ] - Scheduler: Time to record 13 WSETDT 11:59 AM-3:00 PM College Football
Only one of these can succeed because you only have one tuner. In this case, the "Growing a Greener World" recording succeeded.
So, the "College Football" recording is prevented from starting until at least 12:30 PM.
At 12:29 PM another recording starts on WBRADT:
[2014-11-29 12:29:14,895] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [INFO ] - Scheduler: Time to record 15 WBRADT 12:29 PM-1:00 PM Victory Garden's edibleFEAST
This is only possible because WBRADT is the channel that "Growing a Greener World" is recording from.
That recording further delays "College Football" from starting until at least 1:00 PM.
At 12:59 PM another recording starts on the same WBRADT channel:
[2014-11-29 12:59:09,774] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [INFO ] - Scheduler: Time to record 15 WBRADT 12:59 PM-1:30 PM The American Woodshop
That recording further delays "College Football" from starting until at least 1:30 PM.
"The American Woodshop" stops at 1:31 PM:
[2014-11-29 13:31:05,224] [Log ] [scheduler thread] [INFO ] - Scheduler: stop record 15 WBRADT 11/29/2014 12:59:10 PM-11/29/2014 1:30:00 PM The American Woodshop
Finally the Colossus is free to start recording "College Football"... so that's what happens:

For a Colossus or HD-PVR, it is only possible to record overlapping programs with one Colossus/HD-PVR when the programs are shown on the same channel. You can see this happening with the previously discussed "Growing a Greener World", "Victory Garden's edibleFEAST" and "The American Woodshop" programs. The pre/post recordings are successful because all of those programs ran on the same WBRADT channel.
I'm not able to help with this because you haven't specified:1. I recorded a program yesterday using advanced record with a post record of 45 min. It did not post record.
- The name of the program.
- The date and time of the recording.
Again, please be more specific:2. Today I set a recording to begin at 12 noon local time and it did not begin until about 1:30pm. The program is recording now and the log is attached. The system clock is correct and shows correctly on the MP screen.
- What date is "today"? Right now in New Zealand it is 30 November, but I guess you actually mean 29 November???
- What is the name of the program?

You should be notified about conflicting recordings when you create a new schedule that generates conflicts. You're expected to decide what to do to resolve the conflict(s) at that time. Therefore it should not be possible to inadvertently schedule overlapping/conflicting recordings. Therefore there is no screen to notify about overlapping recordings for existing schedules.3. I cannot find reference anywhere to the screen that notifies one of overlapping recordings that are inadvertently being scheduled. Can you point me in the right direction?
Yes, it is really happening.4. A technical question. I have a single seat setup using one tuner. Programs are set to start 1 min ahead of time. I have observed that when two consecutive programs are recorded, BOTH seem to record during the overlap period. I am just wondering how this is done with a single tuner or is it really happening.
