Turning off PTAT

[dwarren2]

Does PTAT be empty of programs to get the Enable/Disable option?

Do you mean does the PTAT folder need to be empty before it has the enable/disable option? If so, it does NOT need to be empty before you can disable

Can't do it from folder. Need to go to Settings/DVR defaults/PTAT/....

Thanks. That did the trick. I had turned it on for the Super Bowel so the wife could see just the commercials. We watch so little of Prime Time on the networks that I don't use PTAT.

Did it work? (didn't for me)

Then you must not have "Saved" the changes.

No...I actually use PTAT for every night (except Saturday) and have had it set that way since I first got it. If you mean did I click "save" on that particular show after it showed up in the folder, I did not. It was there (as usual) but did not have the little red kangaroo symbol and when I opened it, it played like any non-auto-hop show. No 'hop' option of any kind.

In addition, I was surprised that for what [seemed] like a fast Superbowl, the broadcast ran so long that half of "The Blacklist" was pushed out of the PTAT record period. I'm glad I anticipated that and added the next hour in the guide to catch any "overdraft". (It was not "auto-hoppable" either)
