bNotes

The TV Guide programme start and end time are determined by the broadcaster. It is advisable to slightly increase the duration of the recording to allow for minor changes to the schedule.

If the time of the broadcast changes, the recorder will still record at the time and day originally specified. It cannot automatically adjust the recording to the new programme time.
