I've noticed a problem which I hope I haven't raised here before!

We have two programmes A and B. Programme A is repeated within the window of available guide data, for example it is repeated two hours after the first showing. Programme B is shown only once but clashes with the first showing of A.

If programme A has a higher priority than B. This cause the first showing of A to be recorded and B listed as a conflict. The desired behaviour would be to record the second showing of A and record B too.

This can be fixed by adjusting the relative priorities of A and B but that isn't a proper solution. I hope someone with knowledge of the scheduler might want to fix this - I know it will affect many in the UK where repeat showings of a program are common within a week or two of the original broadcast.
This is expected behavior. I believe there is an option for this in the setup to allower rescheduling of higher priority items in favor of catching lower priority showings. This is done because A is higher priority so the first showing wins over recording at a later time. The checkbox will change that behavior.

In General Recording Priorities Settings:

Reschedule Higher Priorities
Move higher priority programs to other cards and showings when resolving conflicts. This can be used to record lower priority programs that would otherwise not be recorded, but risks missing a higher priority program if the schedule changes.
