Is there a way to deal with timeslots that normally contain a program, but occasionally have a different program? For example, the Laura Cotes Live show is on at 8:00, and I have a pass for that. Today, CNN is showing "Missing: The Search For Nancy Guthrie" in that timeslot. It's still Laura Cotes, but it doesn't record because of the program metadata doesn't match the pass. I'd like to automatically record shows like that. I think this might be why recording a timeslot has been often requested. is there any other method?
Most likely with an advanced pass but you have to provide specific conditions.
In this case, what should the DVR look for in the guide to know to record a show?
If what you want to do is record the show that airs on CNN on Friday nights at 8 PM (regardless of what show it is), you can create an advanced pass like this:
