Hmm the way you phrased that brings up a question - just because you specify different channels - is TiVo better with two programmes on the same channel. For example you have 2 programmes set to record on channel 5 back to back, and another on a different channel. Does it recognise that the two channel 5 programmes wouldn't need an extra tuner (even if you set padding) and therefore not cause a problem.

I hope I'm making sense. Just something I've always wondered even with the V+ why it doesn't recognise it's the same channel and then not have the conflict issues.
