Hi all.
i have noticed an issue where my tivo isn't smart enough to record some programs on the same ch on one tuner
when they are back to back.
ie on ch 7 they have a lot of programming that's 30 minutes back to back to make up 1 hr.
i want to record both shows, so the tivo uses two tuners instead of just recording 1hr on 7 on one tuner.
i realise i would end up with one recording that's 1hr 15 mins, and that's fine. (5 mins early, 10 mins longer)
ill try to be more specific.
say for example i want to record dog squad & surf patrol on ch 7.
dog squad is 7:30 to 8pm. surf patrol is 8pm to 8:30.
doing this i can not record the new inventors on the ABC at 8pm. as the 1st tuner is still busy recording
dog squad.
i extend recordings (10 mins usually), so i don't miss the endings.
the tivo also often also screws up the second recording if it's on the same ch. the second recording is often scrambled.
the only solution i have found is to set up manual recordings, but that then doesn't allow for the times when a
shows time slot is moved, or is not on for a week.
anyone else notice these things ?
is there something im missing ?
Jason.
