We record two shows in the morning. 6-7 am and 7-9am back to back. If I go to the TV guide and begin “watch from start” on the second show, because its not finished recording, play begins roughly 30 minutes earlier into the first show. I thinking maybe some type of problem with the buffer? No sure. Thanks.

Having similar problem with only a single recording. If I try to watch from start Im placed somewhere in the middle of the recording, but never at the start. Makes it basically unusable.
