We have a 2 minute before and after set for all recordings. Never had a problem until last Tuesday evening. Series link was recording (I think, The Glades and Haven at 9.00 PM). We were watching the darts on Sky Sports but had paused the live coverage to plate dinner. (We are peasants and sometimes use trays rather than sit at the dining table, can't see the TV from there). Tivo was scheduled to record another programme at 10.00PM. We had a pop up asking whether to clip or cancel one of the recordings in progress. My assumption is that, despite only having two red recording led's lit, the darts were in buffer. Not really an issue but made me think WTF for a moment. The missus asked why it did that, as there were only two tuners active (or as she put it "There's only two red lights on so why is it doing that?"). Am I correct or do I just tiptoe away?
