OK, yes, I thought documentation was written before the implementation, but
the way the documentation describes seems to be easier than the having to
set the hard padding. It seems illogical to ignore the soft padding settings
when they could be obeyed using a spare virtual tuner.

Never mind, it appears the only way of ensuring back-to-back recordings
don't miss either the end of the first or the start of the second recording
is to manually intervene and cause a conflict.
