Manual padding/start/end times

I used to have DirecTV satellite now I have DirecTV streaming it's really frustrating that now when I record a show it cuts off the end of every show because there is no manual padding or manual start and end times. It would be wonderful if DirecTV could figure out a way to add the manual padding option or the manual start and end times to their streaming services.

It's an often-requested enhancement.  I'm not holding my breath for it.

I only notice this on live NFL programing It will add padding up to 3 hours -and  it runs into over it will cut off -My work around is I go 3 hour ahead in the guide and record the next program in the guide. 

Even if you think any program you record my run over --just go in to the guide and program the next show or as many you think you will need --it's not like your going to run  out of disc space --LOL
