 **Adding padding:**
-In this example, a series recording has been selected, and this options window will pop open.
+Padding sets a "safe" zone of extra time to record the program at the start and end of a program. The default padding is to add an extra 30 seconds at the start and end of a program. This can be especially useful for sporting events that may run long, or a channel is off in its timing and you want to prevent the end or start from being cut off.
-The first option is for the recording "padding". This sets a "safe" zone of extra time to record the program at the start and end of a program. The default padding is to add an extra 30 seconds at the start and end of a program. This can be especially useful for sporting events that may run long, or a channel is off in its timing.
 Padding can also be changed for a series in the program information area, as you will see two new padding options show up in the window after a recording has been set for that show or series.
-<WRAP info>If you have a limited number of tuners and programs back-to-back, but on **different channels**, you may want to set the padding to zero, to ensure that the HDHomeRun's tuners are free to record multiple channels. If the programs that are back-to-to-back are on the **same channel** then you can keep the padding, as the DVR software doesn't have to change channels for each program.</WRAP>
+<WRAP info>If you have a lot of back-to-back recordings that are on different channels, but only have a limited number of tuners, the extra padding can prevent the tuner from switching to the correct channel. The DVR software thinks that all tuners are "busy", even though it's just 30 seconds late. If you know you have a lot of shows on around the same time, you may want to set their padding to 0 to prevent this.</WRAP>
