Record a show while it's playing

If you have a Comcast DVR, you can record an in-progress program from the beginning.

Built-in DVR

If you have a built-in DVR, what happens will depend on the DVR you have. When recording a program in-progress, some built-in DVRs will include the portion of the program stored in the buffer. Others are only able to start the recording from the time you press Record.
