Scheduling priority

If scheduled time slots are next to each other and there is
more than one minute between the end time of the first
schedule and the start time of the next schedule,
programmed recording will be performed correctly.
• When Start Padding Time and End Padding Time are set
(see page 56), the start time and end time will be the time
plus the additional minutes.
If scheduling times overlap, priority will be given to the
programmed recording which starts first. When the
programmed recording that started first ends, recording will
switch to the next scheduled programme. At this time,
depending on how far the scheduling times overlap, the
beginning section of the next scheduled programme may not
be recorded.
• When End Padding Time is set for the first programmed
recording (see page 56), depending on how far the
scheduling times overlap, the End Padding Time may be
ignored and recording of the next scheduled programme
may start. As priority is given to the time set in the Set Timer
menu over the Padding Time, recording will automatically
be triggered when the next scheduled programme start
time is reached during End Padding Time.
