The main concern, however is the reason for the "conflict" because it happened again this week. I checked it before it was set to record and I think I see why it did not record two weeks ago... It appears that the scheduling data shows Lost showing from 9:00-10:11pm. 10:11 PM? The "conflict" is "Life on Mars" (the show which follows Lost on ABC), SD has it scheduled to start at 10:09 PM, 2 minutes before Lost ends!

This isn't the right place to report problems with schedules direct.
Login to your SD account, then on the lineup you're having a problem
with click on the Report button. They are usually pretty good at
getting back to you quickly.
