6.6Recording Priorities and Conflicts

As Magic TV™ MTV5000 can only tune to one channel at a time, it will constantly check to see if any new recordings or changes to a Scheduled Recording cause an overlap.

If Magic TV™ detects an overlap or conflict when making or amending a Scheduled Recording, a message will appear asking you to set the priority for that programme.

Higher	This programme will be recorded instead of lower
	priority Scheduled Recordings

Lower	If a Higher priority scheduled recording conflicts with this
	one, the other will be recorded

Cancel	This will cancel the new recording/adjustment

Unless the programmes start and stop times match exactly, Magic TV™ will still record some of the lower priority programme. Depending on the overlap, it will record either the beginning or the end of the lower priority programme.

A programme that will not record entirely will have a icon on the To Do List.
