[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1255479, member: 141969"] "TV Server" does detect multiple conflicts. Look at the two screen shots below. In the first test, I scheduled concurrent programmes on the five main HD channels. These are all on the same MUX, so no conflict. I then scheduled a programme on "More4+1", which also did not generate a conflict (that was a surprise; is "More4+1" in the primary HD MUX?). Finally, I tried to schedule "Judge Judy" on "Blaze", and that triggered the conflict pop-up. Note that the pop-up has scroll triangles in the top right, because the entry for "More4+1" cannot be fitted within the size of the pop-up, so the list of conflicting programmes can be scrolled: [ATTACH]200598[/ATTACH] In the second test, I scheduled two programmes separated by a gap of 45 minutes (so no conflict even with padding). I then scheduled a movie that overlapped both programmes, and the conflict pop-up appeared: [ATTACH]200599[/ATTACH] The thread that you linked mentions (among other things) recording priorities. In fact, [i]there is[/i] a recording priority panel in MP, but most skins do not show it (this may be because it does not work). In my "ClassicWide" skin, I have re-enabled the selection (first screen shot), and selecting "Assign priorities" gives you a panel on which you can re-arrange the priority order of scheduled recordings (second screen shot; I apologise for the illegibility of this panel, but it is one that I have not yet restyled): [ATTACH]200600[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]200601[/ATTACH] -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
