Can this setting be allowed to use minus number, which would effectively allow MINUTES AFTER START / MINUTES BEFORE END.
This would help in the case where one show ends at say 11:37, and the new show starts at 11:37, and you do not wish to have more then 1 tuner be used.
So in the case show #1 I would set to “MINUTES AFTER END” to -1 so the show stops recording at 11:36, and then recording for show #2 starts at 11:37, or I could set #2 “MINUTES BEFORE START” to -1, which would start recording recording at 11:38.

I have been coming across exactly this sort of problem. I’ve not come across a better solution than setting both to 0, and/or giving Silicon Dust a lot more of your money 
I have seen others use the negative numbers successfully but it was on older beta versions. You’d need to test it to make sure it still works in Beta 5. I can’t imagine why they’d take it out.
Seems to me that if the apparently overlapping shows are on the same channel and just follow each other, there is no clash. Plex could simply record both shows according to the prescribed times. The fact that for some minutes it would actually be recording 2 shows simultaneously would not be hard to do and still only take up the one tuner. Recording off-air like this is not very processor intensive. Just accept the bytes and stuff them down onto disc. Trying to transcode at the same time might be more problematic though. But solvable. Maybe switch to .ts when there is an overlap like this.
The ability to avoid supposed clashes like this would be a god send for me as so often the problem is 2 shows back-to-back on the same channel, but always needing 2 tuners at the changeover point. It doesn’t have to be this way.
Windows Media Center handles this very easily in which it it accepts the before and after values if available. If there is a conflict, it ignores them.
