Hello! > Why would you want that? > It would deprive you of possible recording opportunities! Some time ago, my girlfriend wondered why our box was switching to another programme and she couldn't switch back. A second recording had been started and both tuners where occupied. I don't know how VDR handles this situation, but I liked what my old box, Gigaset M740AV, did: It asked the user for advice (not start the recording, stop one of the running recordings or switch live channel), and if he didn't react (so obviously no-one cared to watch live TV), it switched so it could do the recording.
