Much better solution than what I suggested.  Would be nice however if you
could keep this option enabled and only have it apply when the priorities
are within X amount.

For example, if I have two shows, one with a total priority of 10, another
with one of 6... I probably want the 6 to record, even if that means that
the higher priority show needs to record later.  But if the two shows were
10, and -10... then I really don't care about the -10.  It should be an
easy thing to add to the scheduler... simple if the difference is > X, do
not reschedule the higher priority show.

This would be a very simple
