Occasionally I have a recording that isn’t complete or had recording errors. A menu option to allow an episode or movie to be recorded again and overwrite the existing recording would be useful.

There’s already a suggestion for that. Admittedly it hasn’t received much attention…

> Loving the DVR so far. One missing feature is the ability to delete a recording with the option to re-record the show. This is helpful when the show listing was incorrect (causing the wrong show to be recorded) or there was an issue with the recording (it is a beta recording solution).
