I have been noticing that some programs are not starting on time, so when the show stopper starts recording it is recording a previous program.  Then I am missing about 8 minutes of the ending. I called panasonic and they said my showstopper did not have the record options feature to increase or decrease record time... is there a hack for that?

I have tivo too, and it has that feature built in...
I am hoping there is a hack..
