So instead of recording the later 1am showing of Lemon La Vida Loca, it just clips the recording instead.

Now I can use the "upcoming" thing to find the repeat and it lists both as S2 Ep4, so why doesn't the intelligence of the Tivo record that instead?
If you turn of Overlap Protection i.e. clipping, this will force the box to re-schedule the lowest priority recording. My youngest is watching Iggle Piggle at the moment so I can't check but I'l sure the setting is in the "Recording" menu in settings.

Why clipping is the default is beyond me as one of the most powerful features of the box is its ability to reschedule. BTW as a general rule with TiVo it's best to replace the word "cancel" in any setting or message with "attempt to re-schedule"
