Nope, the scheduler uses first fit in either case.  The big differnece
is this.  When SchedMoveHigher is enabled, the scheduler will try to
move recordings to lower priority channels/inputs/whatever.  When
SchedMoveHigher is disabled, the scheduler will only try to move
recordings to channels/inputs/whatever with the same or higher
priority.
