It seems that the networks (most likely in an effort to thwart us
time-shifting, commercial-skipping "content thieves") are scheduling
programs to start and/or end a minute early/late. For example, on 1/26
at 9:59PM, ER is scheduled to air. It will only be recorded of course
if there is not something scheduled in the 9-10 timeslot.
This can be dealt with easily enough (manually) simply by scheduling the
9-10 program to stop recording a minute early. It's a pain to have to
watch the scheduled programs list for this kind of situation however.
What about a feature in mythtv to always end a recording early if a
conflict overlap is within some allowed time? So I could set mine to 1
minute and if the scheduler ever sees a time overlap of a minute or
less, it will schedule the preceding program a minute early.
I suppose one could/should also be able to choose to start the
subsequent program late, allowing the previous program to complete. Or
maybe even split the difference. Whatever. I just know that having to
do this manually is less than optimal.
I would definitely prefer to have the following program start one minute later. I would rather miss the start of a program than the end.
Unfortunately I do not have the time to implement such a feature...
