Avoid overlap of programs...
There is a case that a program will not be performed.
When programs overlap:
• The program that the start time is set earliest has priority.
• Once the earlier program finishes, the overlapping programs will begin recording in sequence.
• The illustration below demonstrates the sequence of recordings.
