I wasn't clear. Without user intervention, the scheduler doesn't handle, 
or handles poorly, a single card and schedules that overlap by a minute. 
As you pointed out, that is a conflict, and one show will be dropped.

Start early/end late CAN correct that IF I catch that I need to set it. 
Usually I use the R key from the program guide grid to schedule, so I 
miss that correction is needed. Of course, if shows move or schedules 
change after I've set an "Always" type recording, I will certainly miss it.

In short, NBC's "minute off to defeat TiVo" schedule defeats MythTV too 
if user action is not taken. Recording partial schedules when there is a 
short conflict defeats NBC without user action.
