# Query to determine if we should be recording at any particular
# moment. It can be assumed that the VCR will query the program
# manager at most twice per minute, and with always increasing minutes.
# New programs may be added between two calls to #record?.
#
# This method must return either a +nil+, indicating to stop recording,
# or don't start, or an +Integer+, which is the channel number we should
# be recording.
