Is there anyway to change the timer's tuner selection on the fly in the timers menu for a future record?

For example, I set up a timer event to record a truck show at 7pm today, it's 3pm now. With the record plus feature on, it auto set it to record on TV2 when I created the timer (or I told it to). At 3pm that was ok with me. However, my kids got home at 6:30pm and are going to use TV2 at 7pm to watch Barney. I realize this and want to change the truck show recording to TV1. I don't see a way to do this unless I delete the truck show at 7pm on TV2 and set it up again on TV with a new event.

If the recording has already started you can switch to single mode, press swap on the remote and then switch back to dual mode and the recording will be on the other tv. I don't know if this works for a future timer or not.
