i was wondering if it'd be possible to edit the pre/post padding settings from the web admin.
for the most part, the thing works great, and most shows stay within their alotted time. on the other hand, sports events often have delayed starts (b/c of previous games) or they last longer (OT) than scheduled. for these types of shows, it'd be nice to have some way of changing the pre/post padding so you can add 30 mins to the end, for example.
as far as UI implementation, i wouldn't particularly care how it's done. it could be an option when choosing to record the program (having selected it from the tv guide), or it could be edited in the Manage Recordings tab -- maybe have an "Edit" or "Update" button in addition to "Cancel" for all pending recordings.
curious as to how difficult this would be to do...and if anybody else wants this feature.
