[mythtv-users] pre/post roll not working even though multiple free tuners and multi-rec even with just two back to back

[Mitch Capper]

I am sure, however after trying several other things to fix this I did
manually try to adjust all priorities in the database to be equal for the
aux tuners (as I figured maybe it was always picking a higher priority
one).  I tried enabling schedule as a group (as there seemed to be no
downside) and that did solve my pre/post roll issue.  Granted maybe had I
fixed SchedOpenEnd before  setting priorities to be equal that may have
also worked.  3 shows back to back with 3 more and no pre/post roll issues.
Thanks for the help!
