Sounds like a minimal implementation then. If this doesn't have padding cut-off with back to back channels as well then this is actually going to make Tivo worse not better, bad news!

I regularly have tiumes when we are watching live TV with 2 other programmes (say 9-10pm) recording and a 10am start recording is due with 1 minute padding. So a few minutes before it is goong to start, I am presented with the issue of stop what I am watching on live TV (which means the end of something you are watching which is the key part you don't want to miss), or give up on a recording.

V+ had padding design so right, VM just need to copy it for Tivo, is that so hard for the designers?
