PBS News exclusively skipped by OnePass recording

Unless the DVR is already on, the OnePass-scheduled program of PBS News is skipped, any day, any time. No other PBS shows are so treated nor any other channel programs. Anyone have a clue as to what ‘‘this is about?!

Intriguing. Whatis a "1p" and how do I delete and recreate?

 

PBS NewsHour,

 

Unless I have started another show playing or recording thru the DVR, it usually has been inactive enough to go into standby. For the past few months I have been doing a workaround for my issue by setting the Tivo to record a show from another channel in the half-hour before the desired PBS show to get its juices flowing, and this always works (unless I forget to do it, or the selected show is preempted by football).

 

What could be easier! I'll give it a go, thanks.

 

Thanks. Yes, but no effect.

 

Turning off all power saving did the trick, indeed! The energy cost is a small price to pay for the convenience. The intellectual challenge of the question of why the selectivity of the fault remains, but it is not keeping me awake at night. Thanks!

 

I lied. (Or more generously, I had a Senior Moment. ) I thought I had, but I hadn't. The "1p" was indeed the problem! After almost 4 years of faithful and faultless service by our TIVO, that it should be the source of my pain was the last thing on my mind. I thought the TV program must have changed its signal! Live and learn (maybe )! Thanks so much, and Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Well, I couldn't go to sleep after all. In fear that I had done something wrong (I had), I was preoccupied with PSU_Sudzi's note. Now I'm back on full-bore power saving with no problem. Thanks again. And, Happy Thanksgiving.

 

An update: Alas, the "fix" lasted for awhile, then extended success when I reset to "low" power setting. Finally, even this became undependable. Hopefully leaving the setting to no power saving will satisfy the need. Merry Christmas.
