You'd be suprised what can happen in 10 sec when most/all shows start "right on the dot". Back in the vcr days most people would start their vcr one min early, and you don't have that option using "series recording" on the motorola box. Computers running windows sinc up their clock once every week by default.

Sure you can or at least on my DCT6412 I can. When setting up the series recording you need to select "view all settings" and more options will show up including "start recording" - on time or 1 to 15 minutes early.

I see what you mean. Never paid to much attention to the series menu B4.
