Choosing a specific channel to record programs broadcasting on multiple channels

I'm trying to record all Blue Jays games on Sportsnet West (SNW). Unfortunately, I can only choose "SD preferred", or "HD preferred", and there is no option to record specifically on SNW. If I want to record all games, they default to Sportsnet Pacific (SNP). Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, except everything recorded from SNP is a terrible recording with messed up fast forwarding timing. You can fast forward ten minutes, and when you press play again, it jumps back like 5 minutes, so you have to fast forward again, and it just keeps jumping back a ridiculous amount of time instead of playing from the point you stop fast forwarding.

This does not happen with recordings of the exact same game on SNW (I've recorded the same thing on both networks at the same time, SNP is all messed up, SNW works fine.) 

Either SNP needs to be fixed, or I need to have the option to record all games SPECIFICALLY on SNW, which I don't, and it's ridiculous.

@BeeKay21  You could try recording using the sports app and set recordings. You can also add a favourite team and mange recordings for there, but I donโ€™t know which channel it would record, anyway, something to try:

Still only get the SD/HD option, which defaults to Sportsnet Pacific. The only workaround is to record each individual game on Sportsnet West, which is a huge pain in the...

Shaw only has 2 options; either fix Sportsnet Pacific recordings so the FFWD isn't a huge lagging problem, or allow specific channel selection for the recording of sports team schedules.
