[QUOTE="Peter Green, post: 1275445, member: 166140"] Hi, previous user of Nebula DigiTV here, changed to MP2 with a TBS6205 DVB-T2/T/C Quad Tuner last week. After finding that some of my recordings had started partway through the program, I discovered that MP2 issues no warnings if my schedules max out my tuners, so one program won't start recording until a previous one ends and frees up a multiplex. In fact I experimented and found that MP2 will happily let me schedule seven overlapping recordings on seven different Freeview multiplexes, even though I only have four tuners availble. So I looked around the MP2 Support section and I'm confused. The following thread talks about schedule conflicts and even has a screenshot of a pop-up: [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/soft-padding-for-epg-recordings.138896/page-2"]Soft padding for EPG recordings[/URL] On the other hand, this open issue (Add Recording Conflicts Management) says "Currently there is no logic that prevents users from scheduling too many recordings at the same time." [URL="https://issues.team-mediaportal.com/projects/MP2/issues/MP2-607?filter=allopenissues"]- MediaPortal Jira[/URL] Which is correct? If conflicts can be detected, why don't I get any warning pop-ups? If they can't, isn't that a major useability fail? [/QUOTE]
