One of the joys of multirec is that you will get the overlap in both
recordings. No need to use a second tuner for that situation any more.

The sad part of hard-padding. You're causing a scheduling conflict by
forcing the early/late record times. Let the scheduler do it with soft
padding like you set it up originally.
