Thanks for the response! To be more specific about my problem, Mike, the beginning of a show appears to be cut off, but it's entirely possible that I just need to start the recording off early or finish late where appropriate. My only concern is that that will cut into recording shows that either precede or follow a show's time slot.
<br><br>An additional piece of information: I have noticed that the hardware clock has gone wacky a few times. Like reset the date to some time in the 80's wacky. It seems to be all right now after doing a hwclock --systohc, but I don't know if there are any more problems there, and if so what can be done to correct them.
