Sometimes sports cause other shows to start late or the beginning of a show gets preempted by a sport running into overtime. If the show is run again at a later date/time I'd like to just record the portion I missed so I don't use up my data limit rerecording the rest. Could you add something to the pass that would allow only a portion of the show to record?
You can set custom padding on the recording
@tmm1 This was the latest post that turned up in my searching, so I’m going to comment here.
LEGO Masters on Fox at 8PM central on 10/12 didn’t get recorded because of a sports game.
Since I don’t actively watch when sports or events are happening around my passes that could potentially affect my recordings (does anyone do that??), I can’t proactively add a buffer.
My question is just is anything really possible to address this issue? Is this something being worked on? Does your guide schedule get updated that fast to allow the DVR to move the recording time? I’m assuming it does not update at all and is completely out of your control, which just sucks.
Pretty sure anyone that records from the major networks pads their non-sport recordings when sporting events are going to be aired.
As a TiVo user I discovered a whole section of the TCF Forum devoted to that discussion.
Maybe a new section can be added to Playground - Channels Community for it

Fair point, however I can’t imagine having to deal with fast forwarding every single one of my recordings.
For fucks sake, the masked singer got recorded this week and I got like 10mins of LEGO Masters.
I give up.
I better check my lego masters ... Got 59 minutes ... have not watched yet.
I just checked my recording, it is 45 minutes of Masked Singer followed up the first 15 minutes of Lego Master. Gonna replace that with a Hulu Stream Link.
