For example, I want to record all the Golden State Warriors games that occur on HDTV or if not available on HDTV then record them on normal TV, without recording blank channels that I are not on my subscription or a lot of superfluous programs that use some of the key words but aren't the game itself.
If I record a series for the key word search "Golden State Warriors" or "Golden State" or "Golden State NBA" I miss games, record some non-game programs, or record channels that are blacked out to me. I could do more selective searches with TiVo so that I just got the games I wanted, but I can't find enough granularity in the Comcast DVR system to record Warriors, Giants, or 49ers games. The closest I can come is to save these searches, and every few days sit down and manually scan through all the items the return and select the right ones! Even dong that, none of the searches turned up yesterday's Warriors game on 720 at &;30pm. So I assumed it wasn't televised. But I happened to look at channel 720 that evening - and the game was there! What's going on?
The Comcast system seems to work fine for the simple task of recording a TV sitcom series such as Chuck or The Mentalist. But to record the games of my favorite sports teams requires a DVR system that can find the games on whatever channel they are on, and only record those channels which I subscribe to.
Any suggestions on how best to record my favorite teams using the Comcast DVR?
