[QUOTE="jameson_uk, post: 607434, member: 11220"] so the conflict management is an extra level of unfinished complexity on top of this :( If you do happen to notice when looking through the code whether the recommendedCard value in the schedule table is actually used this would at least allow the conflict plugin to be made to work at a later date. Just a shame this is so embeded within MP. I did have a quick scan through the code and from what I could tell there are a couple of places which turn the schedule table into a list of recordings; it would make a lot more sense to store the individual recordings in a table (this would also make the cancelled schedules much easier to handle as it would be a simple delete) and the schedule rules in another. Card allocation could then be set each time a recording is added to the table and each time a new recording is added any conflicts identified and an attempt to resuffle the card allocations to resolve where possible). Anyway this is far too much work for MP 1.1 and probably not going to happen until the next version of TVE [/QUOTE]
