How to manually record

Does anyone have a suggestion or workaround?

I like to watch ESPN SportsCenter. If I record the series I get many recordings because it is broadcast multiple times each night, all under the same title. And all are coded as New so New Episodes Only doesn't help. And if I limit the number of episodes to record I get only the most recent such as 8:00am when I wanted 11:00pm.

One option would be to record the channel from 11:00pm-1:00am each night, but support tells me that such a manual recording feature isn't available. They told me to record the specific episode I want and set that every day.

Anyone come up with a better solution?

Thank you.

    you can set series recording, then in the advanced options somewhere you can specify the station, as well as telling to record only new, and I think, only once.

      If ESPN SportsCenter is on multiple times per day and each one is coded as new, how would that allow OP to record only the one that is on at 11:00pm every day?

    Wow! the 5 year old post by 'kedd'  (link 'CurtB') works great!

    I wonder what other hidden features are available?
