DVR does not record a film which has a news or other short program in the middle of the film

Hi, I have a HD Homerun tuner and Plex server (latest version) running on a Raspberry PI 3 Model B and it records programs. My issue is that here in Great Britain some channels will show a film in 2 parts with a news or other short program in the middle. (A walk in the Clouds, Sony movies, Wed 22nd nov, 18:50-19:45, then news until 19:50, and then the remainder of the film).

I asked Plex to record this film from the upcoming movies and it recorded the first part of the film, but not the second part, so that I am left with only part of the movie. Is there a fix for this so that the complete movie is recorded, or at least a manual way to set the start and end times of the recording. (I would prefer a complete fix to this as the Plex guide does not show the traditional tv guide so you have no way of telling if a film is being aired in multiple parts.

Many thanks

Peter Tewkesbury.
