[mythtv-users] Padding on Same Channel But Different Tuners

[Xesdeeni]

If I hadn't heard all the horror stories about trying to build MythTV from more than one of the Linux experts I work with, I would probably have already begun to look into this.  But given that I'm a Linux noob, I'd need a pretty simple source distribution that would let me meddle.  Does one exist for MythDora?

So this past week, the first time two shows were recorded back-to-back (so it's happened 100% of the time so far), the first show didn't end in the first recording, and by the time the second recording began, a complete (and important to the plot) line of dialog was lost (and I _still_don't know what was said).  My wife was not amused.

You all did see the word "hack" in "quick hack," above, right?  If you
want more, patches accepted at http://svn.mythtv.org/ .
