MythTV assumes you want the whole show, not part of it.  So if it  
sees overlap, it's going to try to reschedule the later recording for  
another time.  If it can't, you'll get a conflict.

To give a more obvious case:  If I have a show on one channel that  
runs from 10:00 to 11:00, and I have a show on another channel that  
runs from 10:00 to 10:30, I obviously don't want Myth to record one  
show from 10:00 to 10:30, then record only the last half of other one.
