Playing List. You can even start watching from the beginning while it finishes recording.
Make your television wishes come true with a WishList

before they’re supposed to and often end later than scheduled. With Recording Options,
you can adjust your recordings to account for variations using the Overtime Scheduler.
This is especially useful for sporting events. See page 52.
