Do you know vdradmin? (www.linvdr.org/download/vdradmin)

I don't use daily (or otherwise regular) timers at all for a year or so -- I
just programm the name of the event and some time/channel margins when needed,
and the rest will vdradmin do for you -- including timer control when the
start/end time of the event changes in the EPG.

Best try version 0.90pre4 (or 0.90, will be out till weekend I think), there
have been some major improvements in the autotimer/timer control.

Bye,
  Mirko
