Also this is bad, because let's say you have 2 recordings PREVIOUSLY SET (days/hours ago)

One at 8:00pm-8:30pm, One at 8:00pm-10:00pm. And you want to record a New THIRD from 8:00pm-10:00pm. You obviously can't. It will clash. But you CAN record the third from 8:30-10:00pm. (provided you miss the first half hour) .....THE OLD GUIDE. Can't do that now with the New Guide. You would have to cancel it all and work backwards. First do the THIRD recording, than go to the DVR guide to adjust to 8:30-10:00pm ... then got do your other 2 recordings. Before you could do this at anytime, right from the guide.

Can't you just use the manual recording via DVR menu to set a manual recording? Obviously wouldn't work with DVR+ (but they can have more than 2 concurrent recordings, so I know you're referring to SA 8300).

Besides "Favorites", "Subscribed" is another great guide menu option.

Didn't think of that. But it's still no excuse for them to take away a great feature.
