I've had the same satellite service, DirecTV, for 25 years, and never see the problem you're describing. I haven't seen that since I was recording on VHS tapes!Alright, sometimes when taping a show, it cuts off and gives me around 3 minutes per 30 minute show, I am not so sure on how it works - probably satalite images et all. Somehow when sleeping or even watching another program, duration of tape, it cuts off that episode. Like once a while, probably it is the provider's proof though. But seeing how we switch cable companies every once a while, they could of fix it right on it. When sometimes recording, like i mentioned it either just cuts itself like that.
Gives the episode like around 1% recording.. Odd how salesman can never think of just the citations, and never think of normal persons. somehow it really gets annoying having pressing fast forward throughout the commericals. and has like the ending line at near beginning.
Even with live events, like sports or awards shows, when I choose to record them a message comes up saying that live events may run over their scheduled time, and do I want to add extra time.
Also, I can set my default recording behavior to start and/or end so many minutes before/after the scheduled time.
I don't know who your provider is, but I'd suggest spending some time looking through your settings for features like I've described.
