Extend recording time

Hi, @RDFrankville. Sports recordings are automatically extended where content continues to stream beyond the programmer’s scheduled time. Visit DIRECTV sports team recordings and live scores FAQ | DIRECTV Support to learn more. Thanks for choosing DIRECTV.  Arlyn, DIRECTV Community Specialist

That's for sports thank you. But what about shows other than sports (i.e. awards shows) that may go over by a few minutes?

Relying on the automatic "extend" feature can be hit or miss. Best to schedule a recording for the following show, too. 

Thanks for your recommendation, @litzdog911. @RDFrankville, check https://www.directv.com/support/article/000093696 for more info. DIRECTV appreciates you both. Ryan, DIRECTV Community Specialist
