[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1104483, member: 82144"] Hello again David I also have no idea, and without log files and recording details I can't go back and check the recording process etc. I'm probably the team member who is the most familiar with the workings of TV Server. If you want to ask somebody else that is fine, but for the record... As I already said, there is no algorithm and no definitive way. Period. You're expected to resolve conflicts by cancelling schedules or episodes as required. If you choose not to resolve conflicts then as far as I'm concerned there are even chances on each recording being performed. Again in another way: the TV Server recorder doesn't actively handle this situation. Once a schedule is created, the recorder blindly attempts to record according to the schedule. It doesn't check for conflicts. Heck, it doesn't even know what a conflict is! Yes, it is possible that the recorder is more prone to record certain schedules in a conflict situation. For example, it might record the schedule that was created first. [B]However, that would be pure chance.[/B] It is not something that we actively designed into the logic. Such a "tendency" may or may not exist. If such a tendency did exist you would need to find it yourself by examining the code. Of course, the code is subject to change at any time. Therefore any undesigned behaviour could also change at any time. This feature already exists and should work. If you're not seeing that happen with your Colossus then it is possible that it is due to your configuration. In particular, your channel configuration. To detect a conflict, TV Server has to be able to work out that the corresponding channels can't be simultaneously viewed/recorded with the available tuners. If TV Server thinks there are not going to be enough tuners available at that time then you should get a warning when you create the schedule. Otherwise you won't get a warning. As above. It is possible, and actually even implemented. Without meaning to blow my own trumpet, there's no other active team member I can think of who is more qualified/knowledgeable about TV Server than myself. If you can't or won't accept my answer then I don't think I can help you further, because if you don't trust my answer then I don't know whose answer you will trust. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
