Golf Channel recording problem

I have been having trouble getting a full Golf Channel show to record. Just tonite it showed I had recorded the full 1 1/2 hours of the WGC bracket show. However, when I tried to watch the playback stopped at just over 1 hour. The same happened with the Arnold Palmer tournament last week. We thought it might be the older VCR so today ATT replaced it with a brand new one and the first time I tried to record the above happened.

 

I love the Golf Channel need some help!!!

Hi @joedonn,

 

We are sorry about the issues you are having with recording on the Golf Channel. With sporting events, we get our information from the broadcasters on the times the event should take, but sometimes they do run longer. Check the guide to see if there were any updates or changes to the scheduled time slot. You may also want to extend the recording in the settings yourself to an extra half hour to hour.

Thanks. I always do that, but in this case the recordings
are ending 30-40 minutes prior to the SCHEDULED time.

Hi,

 

is it ending 30 minutes early even with the 30 minute to 1 hour additional time you are adding?

I'm set to record the WGC tournament tomorrow, so I'll add
30 mins and see what happens. I'll reply later tomorrow.

In one case the DVR said it had recorded the full 2 hours,
but it ended at 35 minutes.

Even the DVR (I am sure the poster meant DVR, not VCR, LOL) gets too bored over, watching GOLF.

 

JUST JOKING, don't ban or remove my post. IT WAS A JOKE 🙂

I'm having the same problem and only on the golf channel (1641). All of my settings are correct, something is cutting the recording short and it appears to be only happening with U-verse.

The on screen message says:
"STOPPED"
"Network problems have stopped this street. The program is not currently available for playing. "
But it never is available to play!!!

Reset the entire system (modem and receiver), and see if this resolves the issue. In the past, it has been a communication issue.

I am having this same problem - for the last few weeks. It records the program and it looks like I have it. It when I play it back, it ends after 30 minutes. I love the golf channel and with the Masters coming up, I really want to fix this problem!

I started having the exact same problem a couple of weeks ago with the Golf Channel.  I have plenty of recording space and add time at the end of the recordings in case the tournaments go past the scheduled time.  It doesn't matter.  The recording stops and I get the message, "Network problems have stopped this stream.  The program is not currently available to playing".   I've also gotten the message, "Finished Recording" right at the start of the broadcast.  Never had a issue with any of my setting until now.

Can anyone guide me also on how I will record the golf channels properly.

As most of the time, I and my colleagues want to record it but we don't have proper knowledge for it. Please if there are any proper guidance videos so mention their links.

Thanks.

We are here to help you get back to watching your favorite sport, @AleMonti.

 

What is the problem that you are having when trying to record the golf channel?

 

If its not recording until the end, have you tried recording the next match?

 

 

We recommend that you try recording the match that you want and the next match. This is because there may be a little carry over from the first match.

 

Let us know if this helps and any more information, so that we can further assist you.
