Cable DVR horror story...

It happened last night.

Being a long-suffering Oklahoma State football fan, I recorded the otherwise meaningless Independence Bowl yesterday to watch last night (broadcast in HD on ESPN's channel). Late in the fourth quarter, Okie State had a two touchdown lead that they (in typical fashion of late) gave up with a punt return and a fumble on the ensuing kickoff. So, late in the fourth, with the game tied at 31, OSU drives to ten yard line. With 13 seconds to go in the game the Cowboys line up for the field goal, the recording hits 3:30 in length, AND FUCKING ENDS!

FUCK! I checked the disk; only 39% full. I need to check if there is a default max recording length that I can change, or if the recording stops when the program guide says the program ends (which makes it tough for sporting events. Overtime?). I guess for sports I'll have to program the subsequent scheduled program(s) to make sure I can catch all of the action. (They made the field goal and won the game, BTW).
