[mythtv-users] mythtv+hdhomerun records wrong 2nd half of show

[Newbury]

Hmm.. I read 'halfway through....it started recording Maya..' as being two recordings (plus the one of Maya he expected). ONE recording with two different channel halves is incredible. I Almost said possible. But the Holmes corollary to Murphy's Law is "if it happened, it must be possible". I'm not sure that this 'impossible' is 'possible'

Clarification please David.
