Yes, that is the one thing that V+ was better at than Tivo. Because of the way Tivo handles this, and potentially clips shows, I went for zero padding right from the get go with Tivo and have had almost no problems. I sometimes add a bit of padding to the odd show that could have problems, i.e., BBC shows, but I check for the implications with regard to other planned shows first.

Personally, I doubt that V+ style padding will ever be added to Tivo.
