Not me. If I schedule something like that, what I want is for Myth
to rearrange things so it can get all of both shows. Half a show is
usually useless to me.
Maybe the difference is, I rarely think about time slots when I set
up recordings. I just think of it as asking Myth to get me shows X,
Y, and Z. I leave the details about what times it should record them
at to the software, because I'm lazy that way. ;)
