The program seems to only report conflicts when I attempt a recording from the TV Guide. Under other conditions, if I ask for a recording that is in conflict, GB-PVR simply does nothing (ie, it acts like everything is ok, even though the recording has not actually been scheduled).
some examples (both of which I came across this very day):
In the Search Guide: find a show, request a recording; if it's a conflict, GB-PVR doesn't complain, but the recording is not scheduled.
In Live TV: you're watching show and press Record, and then select 'Until End of Current Program' (the default); while there's no conflict right now (obviously), before the end of the show there will be a conflict. Again, GB-PVR acts like there is no problem, but the show does not start recording.
I'm pretty sure I've come across another case where the same sort of thing happens, but I can't think of it now.
It'd be nice to see consistent behaviour when attempting to schedule a recording, regardless of where the request is being made.
