So it will lead (sometimes) to false results with "LNB-sharing"?

a) a recording on "horizontal" is currently running -> all simultanious 
   timers on "vert" will be deteted to fail -> OK

b) no recording is running -> all  vert/hor, lo/hi (,dish positition?) 
   conflicts will pass the test?

You haven't load the image yet? ;-)
It shows approx. 20 timers and so the timers after approx. 20:00 
are not accessible, as they would have the numbers 11,12,13 etc.

That'a the reason for the sugesstion to use a cursor to access
the timers.

How sad.
