I had my son's flag football game at 4 yesterday and dinner plans afterwards so I dutifully DVR'd the game and left the cellphone at home so that I could avoid the texts from friends and score alerts. I got home and watched the game but the DVR only recorded until 6:30 , which was just before the Carroo TD at the end of 3rd qtr. score was 52-27 at that point. Like I said, DVR fail......
DVR FAIL

My friend was over and asked if we could put on the kc tor game whIle price was melting down. I said sure, I grabbed the remote and befoe I could touch a button, Turay scores. I said on second thought let's just keep it here for a few more minutes. I credit him with the comeback.
That's why I always add at least an hour onto my Rutgers recording. I know with directv, they ask if you want to extend it...hour is my minimum.
I think this is a good rule of thumb with any sporting event or even recording the next program after a sporting event that might have it's start time altered. FIOS has that too and I think Cablevision as well, even if it doesn't just record the next program after as well.
That game is what started it for me too! LOL
Funny thing is that I watch 99.9999999999% live....and still record it....with extra time.
Did you mean Fresno State? I know that game went 4:20, because I only recorded 4 hours that night and missed the end of the game on DVR. If I recall correctly, last year's WSU game was just under 4 hours, like last night. I normally record 4.5 hours now, but for some reason only recorded 4 hours last night and made it by barely 2 minutes.
