As I said in my opening question, your step 5 would not work.  The channel I want to record at specific times only has a generic title of "local 3" on all blocks, each of which are six hours long.   I can use one suggestion in this thread to manually record the appropriate time -- but cannot make that a weekly occurance. It wonders me why the 2-channel DVR could do this and the "bigger better" 6-channel DVR cannot do the same. ... View more

Unfortunately, that will not work in my case.  The guide entry for that channel has 24/7 blocks of 4 hours with label "Local 3".  So if I said to record all, it would record 24 hours per day/ every day.  That is why I need to be able to record a specific time slot once per week, every week.  I could do that on the 2 channel DVR, but not on the 6-channel DVR. ...
