[mythtv-users] splitting video file and overlapping recordings

[Paul Wilson]

I have a problem where by when I record shows which spill over into 
different time slots the tail and/or head gets recorded in another 
video, I want an easy way of tracking down the recorded show which 
follows or precedes the one I'm watching...
I don't want to have to work it out as sometimes these are recorded a 
few weeks ago so, have to hunt around to find which recording the rest 
of the show is on if at all its there ie my tuner could have switched 
channels rather than record something following first show.
Two questions
Q1. How do I split DVB records easily ?
Q2. Can I easily track the timeline of recordings? ie fimd shows  that 
may have recorded before after show I'm watching?

my old PVR you could split files why can MythTV do it , I see a Edit 
function to set Cut points , what process uses this and can I split from 
here or delete using interface without getting into command line?


If these aren't in MythTV these would be two useful features so I won't 
accidently delete part/end of another show, ie its alot annoying if I 
cut off a show and I find I have deleted the recording which has the 
ending of the one I'm watching.

Thanks
