[mythtv-users] dvb tuning delay dependent on order of recordings?!

HI!

I need a tuning delay on one card only, so that 2 recordings at the same
time really do NOT start at the same second, because then I get
corruption from my cam apparently.

So I have set the dvb_tuning_delay for one of the cards to 20000 (20s)
directly in the database. 10000 would have been enough probably.

So, when the scheduler chooses to place the card with the delay behind
the other one, then everything is good. The one without the delay starts
the recording sharp and the other one starts 20s after.

But when the scheduler places the card with the delay before the other
card, then mythbackend first waits 20s and then starts the recordings on
both cards at the same time again.

Anyone any idea how I can fix that? Or maybe use another setting to
achieve my goal?

BTW, 0.26 does not save the dvb tuning delay setting from the GUI to the
database. This seems to be a bug. But I would have had to set it in the
database manually anyway, because 2000 would not be enough for my problem.

Thanks!

Thomas
