Just hadda get this off my chest. I LOVE Tivo. I really do. But they really need to get their freaking act together when it comes to sporting events. Giving it an arbitrary scheduled time of only 2:30 for an NBA game these days is just NOT going to cut it, especially if a game should go into overtime. And it wouldn't be so bad, except for DirecTV's poor habit of occasionally not allowing you to shedule the following programs after the game for recording, as it, for some reason, wants to consider them 'pay-per-view', when they are on those stinking 'alternate channels'. GRRR So, I missed the last three minutes of reg, plus overtime, of last night's game, because I was not there to babysit the stupid Tivo!! GRRRR Same thing WOULD have happened in the famous TMAC game against San Antonio, but I was actually there to babysit it that time. Anyway, just wanted to see if anyone else was having trouble with Tivo, and had figured out how to actually get the whole game when it won't let you record the following program..
Go to options and have it extend the recording time. I do this all the time. I used to hate that, but once I figured it out, it was coo
Yeah, I have it set to automatically record an extra 30 min for each game. Not quite enough for some overtime games, but it helps.
