DF, OK takes you to the same menu as record. If you select record this showing, you get no padding. If you go into series link and other options then you have another set of menus where you can set the padding.
This really all boils down to usability. I personally want to pad all my recordings as I expect most people will and right now I'm having to walk through menus to find these options.
In my company if we develop a new app we build specific UAT environments which testers users use to hammer out kinks like this. If a user says a high use function is buried too deep in the menu system, we bring it out into a higher level of the app or provide a direct short cut. While this may not be possible in this instance, if the default was changed to something other than "no padding", this whole issue would go away until TiVo can give us the user defined preferences.
