[mythtv] scheduler is this a know problem or do I have to live with it?

[Marcel Meier]

Hi,

I discovered this little problem and I don't know why the scheduler has this Problem.

Facts:
Best I'll give my Setup and the Difference I discovered. I have two tuner (one in the Frontend one in the Masterbackend) which have both the
same priority (no rescheduling for higher priority has to take place). Running Current CVS on all systems.

Here the relevant part of the diff -u  between the good printsched of the Masterbackend
and the bad printsched:

---------------

The only change I did between the two running of "masterbackend --printsched" was
that I changed the Recording-Priority for the Recording "10 vor 10" from 1 to 0 !

Why can the scheduler record all the scheduled Programs(also records TV Total @ 22:15-23:15) when
I lower the Priority of the Show "10 vor 10" and not when it has the same Priority as "TV Total" ?
"TV Total" is a Record at every time on this channel Recording
"10 vor 10" is also a Record at every time on this channel Recording.

Is this intended?

Thanks for any Answer
