Ya, I didn't respond either because I didn't understand what was going on. I use youtubetv for NFL all the time and always skip commercials. I have missed a few 'group' recordings but I think it's because of the way the program was categorized or named. I really like youtubetv's recording function after using windows meda center and hdhomerun prime for years until cox cut cablecard in my area. What show are we talking about here?
