Timed Recording with regular Direct TV

Is timed recording possible with regular Direct TV? I want to record the last 30 minutes of the Super Bowl pregame?

What DVR model do you have?  You should be able to set a manual recording with the desired start, stop times, and channel.

DTV has allowed live TV programs to be padded for up to 3 hours when you set it up and asks you if you want to do it.

It looks like OP wanted to get only the last 30 minutes of a longer broadcast, not extend the time of a broadcast.  If he could have started the Super Bowl recording 30 minutes early, that might have sufficed.

That wasn't much of a game, certainly not very competitive.  Fans of the winning team probably still enjoyed the beatdown.
