I offer this for D*s info -
I have a season pass set for Dan Rather Reports - the show never records (no conflicts - just show cancelled in the history list each time it misses)
Set a one time recording for both the Dallas and Broncos game yesterday (no conflicts there either ) did not record either one - no hint of my setting the record in either the to do list or history - just evaporated.
No more BSOD or freezing problems.
