Much weirdness when trying to schedule recording of a show...

I have already scheduled:
TV2 8:00 - 8:30 Big Bang Theory
TV3 8:30 - 9:30 Heros
TV3 9:30 - 10:30 Prison Break

Then I try to record The Comedy Christmas Gala on TV2 8:30 - 10:00

GBPRV (v1.3.7) says there's a conflict and suggests cancelling Heroes and Prison Break. This is weird because I have a Nova-T 500 (dual tuner) and multi-record is enabled. In principle I should be able to record numerous channels, and indeed I've recorded five channels at once while testing.

What's even more confusing, in the tuner config, I've set tuner one to only record TV1 and TV2, and the other to record the other channels (in an effort to solve the zero-byte multi-record issue discussed in other threads). So, it shouldn't want to use the same tuner form TV2 and TV3!

Anyone encountered anything similar?

just a guess but maybe padding?
or try re-scheduling after changes cuz it only re-checks reoccuring on epg updates, so may not have adjusted for new capabilities..
or try a different order, the 2 TV2's then the TV3's

Thanks for your suggestion, but I resolved the problem before I got around to trying it.

I turned off the multi-record feature (because I'm getting too many zero byte recordings), and re-enabled all channels on all tuners. After that I could schedule the recording without any conflicts. I'm not sure which change ultimately made the difference, but it seems to be working now.

my way around this was to only enable channels from tvnz on one tuner and tv3,4 etc on the other tuner
and empty all scheduled and reocurring recordings

There has been a patch in this area that may help as well. I was having failures during pre-testing and right up into 1.3.7 on multi-record and have applied the patch and only just turned it back on. It seems to be going ok.
