Up till now consecutive recordings (ie: 'ER' on CH4) on the same channel have been recording with the padding I have set up on each programme. Assuming no conflicts I presume both tuners were used to cover the overlap. I had put the box into standby to eliminate unintended conflict with the viewed channel.
On the 29th August this did not happen and although separate episodes were recorded the second started as the first finished (after the padding which ran into the second episode). This is very annoying as to avoid it padding would need to be eliminated, the transmitted EPG control signals would have to be sent correctly (does not always happen) and padding reset for normal use, or a manual recording time set to cover both episodes and a chance taken that the programmes will not change at the last minute. This was how my Sky HD box behaved and was one of its most annoying features. I was pleased the Humax did not behave this way....until now.
Did a software change cause this? If so a new bug has been introduced so Bob-Cat, please fix it, otherwise why the change in behaviour?
