In the past, if you had a conflict when setting timers, you had three choices. You could delete one, edit one, or with a recurring timer, you could choose to delete just that one occurrence. My wife just noticed that the "skip timer this one time" option is now gone. That was a handy feature. Anyone else notice that it's missing now?

Wow, I never knew that was there, but sure would've liked it. Maybe I just never hit that case because timer conflicts are a bit rarer on the dual tuner 921 and usually I am not conflicting with my recurring timers. I'll have to check it out.

The feature still exists on my 921. Perhaps it was an odd set of events that prevented the "skip one time" option from showing up for you. I will add however that I have not found this feature to be entirely reliable. Sometimes one of the events will not record.
I know in the past I have forced conflicts to get the skip-once option when I know the show will not be on this week. I delete the dummy conflicts at the same time. So I hope it is still there.

Yup - I use that feature the same way myself. Just checked, it's fine.
But now that the cat's out of the bag, :rolleyes: E* will start charging us for "enhanced timer conflict resolution". :mad:
