add time EXCEPT when next show also scheduled too

When I setup to record all the college football games, I have to add extra recording time, typically 1 1/2 hours. This leads to recording conflicts when 2 football games occur one after the other on the same channel.

So, if say 9-12 is game one and 12-3 is game 2. The season pass recording options will add the extra time to both games. This means it will need 2 tuners to record both games due to the overlap. Given there's 5 or 6 games on saturday, with multiple games one after the other on a single channel, I will always end up with a conflict.

To get around this, I have to manually edit the earlier games to end as scheduled. When I do this, it doesn't appear to actually take effect (maybe it will after some time, I don't know) and still shows conflicts even though there shouldn't be any once I make the changes.

To make this easier, I propose an option on recording options, which would NOT add the extra time if there was a recording scheduled on that channel at the end of the first game that was at least as long as the extra time specified. This option should be part of the season pass (onepass) options so one can make this setting once.

With this option I wouldn't need to struggle every week to get all the games recorded.
