I am watching a TV show and not in record mode.
I can rewind or pause or forward through already recorderd TV time to the
beginning of the show if I want.
But half way through the current show I decide I really wanted to record the
show from the beginning.
If I hit the record button it only records a part of the show even though
the whole previous time is avaialble to rewind through.
1) How do I get the record button to record all of the show that I can
rewind through and to the end of the current show or when I hit stop
recording?
2) how far back can I go?
3) what determines when the rewind portion starts?

You cannot record what is in the buffer. Recording starts at the time you
click the Record button. This is by design, and so far we've had no luck
getting it changed.
