Might just be worth deleting the non-HD ones in my case

If (for example) you'd scanned two tuners separately, you'd end up with a TV guide that shows the list of channels twice. ie, they're treated as separate chaannels (and only one specific tuner could be used for recording the first set etc). Merging them would make them a single channel in the guide, but with multiple sources. ie, it could use either tuner when it needs to record that channel.

Would that work for a HD and SD channel merged?

Defaulting to one over the other?

You can merge different sources for the same channel if you want. for example, some might be an HD version over DVB-T, and another might SD over DVB-S or SD via a set top box or something. They all just become sources for that specific channel.

When recording a channel, and looking through the sources for a channel, it works it's way down the devices list, which gives you some control over devices you'd prefer to use. (it doesn't specifically know or care if a source is SD vs HD)

Thanks for all your help.

Will let it bed in and get a feel for it now. Looking good so far
