Changing end time for recordings.
Just joined Telus, I have Optik TelusTV+. I'm trying to change the end time for recordings. Doesn't matter whether it is a single program recording or series, the are no options for doing this? I...
Hi Optik-Kate What has happened to the recording 'padding' for sports? It was working for me but I noticed about a week ago that padding wasn't added to my recordings on Golf Channel.
This week I was recording the LPGA Dana Open (Golf). On Thurs, Fri & Sat on 'Golf Channel' - no padding was added. However on today's recording, the final day on CBS it has added the extra hour...
Also any update either time-frame or likely hood of users being able to add time (i.e. 1,3,5,30,60,120 mins) to 'any recordings'. This is a fundamental issue, I can't count the number of times I have missed the last 30 seconds or so of a recorded program. So annoying!

Hi MrSL, the post padding for sports is available to all live streaming sport events that are running for the first time. If they are re-runs, the post padding is not automatically applied. Do you know if you were recording the first run live streaming event on the Golf Channel? Also, the post padding is for extra 60 mins currently, if the event runs more than an hour longer than the scheduled guide time, it won't record past 60 mins.
The user's ability to manually extend is on the roadmap, but as always, I cannot provide a timeline. I can provide an update as we get closer to a release date.
Hi Optik-Kate Sorry I can't remember if it was a first run or repeat because the guide doesn't display "New or Repeat" 🙄. Manually setting recordings for all the golf I can find cause "Series Recording" doesn't work either and as a series recording is only for that channel, no use anyway as often a 'days play' would be on a different channel, i.e. CBS.
Well I hope the update comes soon, very frustrating missing the 'cliff-hanger' at the end of a program frequently.
Is there any roadmap to extending the '45 Days' that recordings are held too? I'm getting to the stage where recordings are being deleted because of this. The answer to look for this on demand doesn't fly either; often re-runs of old series which are not available on demand.
- Can you still check the time indicated on the recording then compare with google results?
