i know xrecord can kind of do this (not very easily thou) and i couldnt figure out if guide2j could do this, but on my 350 tv3 in nz i get utter crap reception, but on my 150 i get excellent (well alot better than on my 350) and i want to make it so that all recordings for tv3 (this would be a manual thing under the "recordings" screen or something not on a quick record) could be set to be preffered to record on my 150 and not my 350. so if the capture source is unused (or im watch live tv, since i use my 150 for live tv) it would, stop live tv (if in use) and start recording on my 150, leaving my 350 unused. if it cant stop live tv thats ok, since if im watching live tv anyway that means i will probably be watching what im going to record. its only realy and issue if im not there and it uses the first capture card free (my crappy 350).
i was thinking of just removing my tv3 from my 350s channels, but sometimes i like to record two shows on tv3 and two shows on tv 2 at the same time, err
i record joey (730-800) then scrubs (800-830) on tv2 and simpsons(730-800) and malcom in the middle(800-830) on tv3.
so just an extra option for "preferred recorder" would be nice (listing them by name not capture source "1" "2".
and yes i know cdk can kind of do this, but that can be a pain (even with the xrecord interface) especially if you want to set this for every recording on a given channel.
