recordings that don't stop on time

[Jim S.]

Has anyone had anything like this happen? I was going out tonight, so I set my 622 to record the Olympics from my local NBC station. The event was listed in the guide for 7:30 to 12:00. When I came home shortly after 12, I saw that the recording was still running even though my local news was on. The news was listed in the guide for this time both when I set the timer and currently. So I thought maybe the Olympic coverage ran a few minutes past 12 (even though it's taped) and the recording would stop at 12:30 when Jay Leno was scheduled. It didn't, so I stopped it manually. I've had recordings that I've had to stop manually a few times before, but as far as I can recall they were all instances in which the guide information changed while the recording was in progress. This doesn't appear to be the case this time.

Olympics = sports which adds a 1 hour buffer at end of scheduled time.

When you are setting up timers, you can select the Options and change the start and end time by adding/subtraction minutes.

Yeah if you had left it alone it should have stopped at 1am.

I had a similiar issue with my 722 on saturday night. I set it to record a football game off the program guide. It not only recorded the game, but the post game show and the local news. A good half hour to 45 minutes over.

Something switched in my 722 that caused all recordings to start 60 minutes early and stop 90 minutes late. I had to go back in and modify everything and then reset 0 and 0 as the defaults. Might be some kind of bug because it did it again about 3 days later.
