Choose a ch to record
When a program is live like the Grammy’s at 5pm and will stop at 8pm, with no auto extend. I try to record the program that starts at 8pm..That program is a replay of the earlier program and will not let me. I have to choose the the later show and the next show. Is there a setting to allow to record the live AND the replay? Thx

Which area you’re in? Usually these high viewership programs get auto extended (Oscars, Grammys, etc).

If it’s KCBS book the 5pm and I’m sure the program will get its auto extension ;)

@GTyz Is that (auto-extending non-sports specials) something new? DTV doesn't claim that in their (very brief) mention of auto-extend in the support pages - they only mention sports. Did you see an announcement from DTV about this?

The only official auto-extension is for sports only (indeed, the most important leagues are the one getting extended). But for high viewership events like these DTV “auto”-extends to make sure customers get their full content in case it goes beyond the allocated time.
