Enquiring friends gasp when i mention the 5 tuners in my setup, 11 is bonkers! Good work

Encoder_merit could still be used to establish a bias towards a particular HD tuner.

Agreed 100%. But they seem to have made prefer HD the default which is better than how it is now.

version 6.0.15:

7. HD airings are now preferred over SD airings when the Scheduler gets to choose between two of them (this is not controlled by encoder merit)


woot woot woot!!!!
