While researching I found:

http://www.mabsoft.org/wacko/MythTV

When you specify “Record at any time on any channel” and you have
multiple tuners, MythTV will attempt to record the program on all
available tuners, reguardless of “Duplicate Check method”. “Find and
record one showing of this title each ..." is ok for single programs,
but for mass recording shows, it becomes ineffective.


Is this still an issue?
How can I fix this?


Currently the Power Search is not saved when I just say
'channel.callsign = "NL2"' for the SQL.
Any ideas?
