Edit: The thread title should be "Recurring Recordings Around Midnight", of course not Recodings.
It would be great if sub could take a look at the logic for scheduling recurring recordings that start close to midnight.
Background:
I record quite a few late night programmes that the broadcaster tends to move around quite a bit. What I mean is that one week the programme starts at 11:40pm and the next week it's 11:30pm. The variability is normally because a longer or shorter film has been broadcast earlier in the evening, and the later shedule is shunted around to accomodate that. These are set up as weekly recurring recordings, and ordinarily the changed start time isn't a problem - provided that the start time hasn't moved by more than the default 90 minutes the recurring recordings logic catches the programme.
The Issue:
The issue is that if the weekly recurring recording has been set-up for say a start time of 11:45pm, but one week the broadcaster moves that to a slot that is 20 minutes later, to a start time of 12:05am the recurring recording logic won't schedule the recording. Presumably because the the first check is the day of the week, and because it has been moved until after midnight the programme is now being broadcast on a different day of the week.
