Well, I just woke up to the fact (after a lengthy discussion with tech support) that one cannot extend the "End Time" of any program that is being recorded by PrimeTimeAnytime. I lost the opportunity to view the last several minutes of the Colts vs Texans game last Sunday.
I don't know how I overlooked this "feature". I see in other threads that some of you are solving this problem by recording whatever program follows the prime time show. That did not occur to me, since I pointed to Guide, hit select. Then when back to My Recordings, found the Colts and modified the "End Late" to add 90 minutes. Of course, that is not what happened. Apparently PrimeTime overrides the "End Late" specification in the timer. Seems if this is the default and cannot be fixed, then the system should not allow one to extend the end time in the first place.
I expressed incredulity that Dish had heard from no one other than me that this is NOT OK.
