[mythtv-users] is mythtv smart enough to do this (overlap/back-to-back) with recordings?

Yeah, that was my first intuition, though to be "clean" this is not

It's what to do when there's no bookmark -- start at the time the
program was scheduled to start. Though I may eventually code it up
the simple way.
