I hadn't realised that tivo had to have priorities set, but thinking about it, it's the only way if it's going to chop things, including padding.

I've never set a priority on V+ because if it highlighted a clash, I sorted it out with a repeat or +1 channel, and it automatically dropped padding where needed.

It's good to know the tivo team know that people have requested the V+ system, but I do fear they may let the tivo system prevail and just add a global option to add padding.
