I understand that... but my point is exactly that I DON'T want to depend on
the EPG or the currently running program. I want to be able to do a "manual"
record for however long I want (30 minutes, 1 hour, whatever).
The whole reason is that the EPG is NOT always reliable. A main example is
when it comes to international programming, it is quite often that the
programming info in the EPG simply doesn't match because the programs don't
start and end exactly as per the guide.
Pressing "R" on liveTV works fine to start recording, but I don't want to be
tied directly to the EPG for determining when the recording should stop...
I'd like to add that it's useful for archiving things from other
media. Recording a VHS or 8mm home video, for example.
