In setting but I would give them a try first, the trick is to start rating programs and in no time it will be recording stuff you'll like. I love it, if I'm stuck on something to watch there is always something in the suggestions folder.

1. Go to Help & Settings from the main menu.

2. Choose Settings.

3. Choose Recordings, then Suggestions to change your settings

Does pause-guide-record-zoom-play work? "zoom" is the button with the strange symbol below Guide.

ps. Welcome to the forum!

ps. Welcome to the forum!
It returns you to live TV, but I think if you leave the on demand program playing, use the guide to set the recording, you can then press guide to return to the still playing program. I've tested this with a couple of different programs and get different results???
