[QUOTE="wonkyd, post: 543009, member: 55675"] I get into a similar situation with my setup. 1. DVB-S2 ITV1 CH4 BBC HD 2. DVB-T ITV1, CH4 If I've previously scheduled a recording on BBC HD at 9PM for one hour, then try to record ITV1 and Channel 4 at 8PM for one hour MP will use my DVB-S2 card to start the recording on ITV1 then use my DVB-T card for Channel 4 causing BBC HD to fail to start recording until 9:10 PM because of the padding. MP could have used just the one DVB-T card to record both ITV1 and Channel 4 becuase they share a multiplex leaving the DVB-S2 card free to record the BBC HD channel on schedule. MP does warn on some occasion of a conflict in the schedule, even though it is theoretically resolvable using the right combination of cards. Even with that said it does warn sometimes and when told to ignore records all the items correctly, then on the other hand sometimes it doesn't warn and a recording will fail. [/QUOTE]
