Live TV recordings are not adding additional time even if the user specifies it

I was wondering why all of my college and NFL games were ending too soon, even tho I added 2hrs of extra time.

I noticed that when I select to record an additional 120 minutes, that setting is not actually saved.

Problem in action: Watch Untitled | Streamable

I was actually about to report this as well. Every game I added extra time to this past weekend just recorded the scheduled time.

I'm on recent CDVR server and AppleTV client betas and, admittedly, the tvOS 26 beta as well.

Had this issue as well, just thought I had done something wrong.

This was resolved in the latest TestFlight beta:

I reported this as an issue for the Android TV client as well, not sure if it's still happening because I don't use it unless I'm out of town.

@maddox When will it get merged to main and be on the release channel?

#7

Soon.

I just tested this and it doesn't work. In fact, what's worse, is no recording is scheduled at all!

Same use case on the release version of Channels records the show (but missing padding, of course)

I tested with the 9.8.2307 version

Are you also using the latest pre release of Channels Server?

Looking into it.
