Still learning my way around the NextPVR interface. Tonight I faced the following situation, first time while using NPVR:
I've been recording the Major League Baseball playoffs. First pitch in the Detroit Tigers - Seattle Mariners game was slated for 4PM (4:08) EST on FS1, but rain delayed the start of the game for so long that they eventually switched the broadcast to FS2 and the MLB Network, lest the showing of that game run into the scheduled 8PM start for the Blue Jays - Yankees contest. Last I heard, they were hoping for about a 7:30 start time for the Tigers.
So all of a sudden, today's recording schedule was shredded. In previous years, when rain has affected TV air times, in Windows Media Center I've gone into the list of recorded programs, clicked on "add recording," then manually entered the (new) channel for the desired game, with its expected new start time and a manually input program title.
I haven't found the way to do this in NPVR. How would one go about doing it?
Another way that I've handled it in the past has been to go to the first show on the EPG that falls within the rescheduled game's start time, then extended the recording of that program (with its original, unrelated title) for as long as necessary to (hopefully) capture the whole game, 3+ hours. I believe the same thing can also be done in NPVR, but I'm hoping there's a way to do it the way I described above.
Thanks very much.

and didn't even think to start looking through the wiki. Thanks for the link, I'm going to it next.
