I have such a setup working without problems - at least since version 1.38.5. IIRC the trick was to explicitely state whic pool to use if case of an automatic level change, i. e. something like this: Schedule { Name="WeeklyCycle" Run=Full FullPool=FULL 1st sat at 00:05 Run=Differential FullPool=FULL DifferentialPool=DIFF 2nd-5th sat at 00:05 Run=Incremental FullPool=FULL DifferentialPool=DIFF IncrementalPool=INCR sun-fri at 00:05 } (This assumes you use the pool names "FULL", "DIFF" and "INCR", resp.)
