Suvivor Series - Possible Cutoff Tonight

For some reason, the Sky EPG has the HD version of tonight's live Survivor Series ending about 6 minutes before the SD version.

Regular viewers will know the live WWE events usually finish well before 4am, but the last time the HD schedule ended early a few minutes before the SD version, it meant that recordings finished before the programme itself had finished - so the end of the main event was not recorded, even with a few minutes padding.

You may want to ensure your padding is set long enough to ensure that the whole programme is recorded.

Surely using manual padding and not automatic, disables the dynamic updating by Sky?

The problem is that they didn't do the dynamic update last time - it just cutoff.

As the event is scheduled for 3 hours - I don't see why the HD version as to be set to 2hr 54 minutes.
