Last night I recorded (for my wife!) Grand Designs and Grand Designs (Trade Secrets) which were back to back on the same channel. They are on a channel (More 4) that requires a CAM so they needed to be on the same virtual tuner. Grand Designs ran a minute over - and since it was a back-to-back it got cut off. Wasn't a big problem since the end was at the beginning of the next recording, but my wife likes to save Grand Designs! Hard padding would have tried to use another virtual tuner and not recorded the following programme since it also needs the CAM.</div> <div> </div> <div>Hope doesn't write patches, and unfortunately neither can I.

On the dev list I remember seeing that the HDHomeRun is likely to be the next supported tuner. As soon as a developer has time and a need for it, I'm sure it will make its way to analog tuners. Since you are using a version with multirec in it, I'm sure you saw these same messages on the dev list. :)</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div></body></html>
