It might be, but I am experiencing the same "late-start" problem when recording the "Coroner" TV show with my "antique" Motorola PVR.  So, the problem is not limited solely to the BlueCurve.

This weeks's Murdoch Mysteries got chopped off at the end yet again. Sigh.  And every episode of Mash i've been recording off Metv has started at the end of the last show before the credits.

Yes, you're right. After watching a CBC recording of Coroner today and paying close attention to the start time it has to be the timing of when CBC  and other channels starts these programs and not just a BlueCurve issue.

Not sure if this may help but it's worth a try. In the 'Settings' menu, select 'Preferences', then select 'General'... and scroll to 'Auto Pad recordings' and have Auto Pad recordings turned 'On'.

I'm also seeing this issue occuring on TLC, with 2 programs that I've recorded just yesterday on that channel (TLC). Those programs being Dr. Pimple Popper, and My Feet Are Killing Me.

I can now add the CW to the list.  Just watched 2 recorded shows from different days and both got chopped off at the end.  It seems to be more widespread.   Someone mentioned an "auto pan" setting - what is it and what does it do?

When 'Auto Pad Recordings' are turned 'On', recordings are scheduled with a little extra time at the start and end, when possible. For example, you decide to record a program starting at 7:00pm for an hour, scheduled to end at 8:00pm. With Auto Pad Recordings turned 'On', you'll then see the program start recording at 6:59pm and end at 8:01pm, as an example. Auto Pad Recording times will vary for each program.

I have the Xi6 BlueCurve TV Players and I cannot find an "Auto Pad Recordings" setting. What TV box are you finding the Auto Pad Recording settings on?
