Programming Priorities
When you have set up several timed recordings, it may occur that some of their
times overlap. For example, this can happen if you are set up to record shows on
adaily or weekly basis, and a special show comes on that you try to record
during the same time slot.
Shows with Same Starting Time
If the overlapping programs start at the same time, the VCR records in order that
they were programmed. If the shows are all scheduled to start at 7 AM, the VCR
starts with the first program at 7 AM, and switches to what remains of the second
program when the first program is done recording, and so on.
