ALL of my recordings start early, big hassle to fast forward every time
When I schedule a DVR recording for a specific time, my DVR always starts recording one or two minutes early. It is a big hassle to always have to fast forward my show to start watching it. Who is the incompetent engineer at ATT Uverse who can't start a recording on time? This is ridiculous!

We used to award each other with a lovely set of steak knives but the mods frowned on us for posting pictures of sharp objects. So instead, I'll award us this: a lovely edible arrangement.

Don't mess with old people. The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

There is nothing to "fix" because the system works as designed. A "fix" is for a bug that causes the system to not work as designed.

I am not talking about the 2 minutes after the show, I am talking about the 1-2 minutes before the show as I made clear. This has got to stop and stop soon. People are starting to take notice.
I DVR 10 shows a day. That is a lot of FF and then going backwards and then forwards to find the exact start of the tv show. That should be done automatically by the DVR.

That's what us folks down here in Texas call "the epi-tome of laziocity".

Since the internal clocks at every station are not consistent, nor in sync with AT&T, give me the soft padding so I never miss the beginning

I looked at some programs I've recorded. On one, the show started :40 into the recording but on the next, it was 1:10.
Soft padding: It's a good thing.
