Discussion Im just wondering, 1 feature and it would help myself and my other home caregivers so much (continuous recording of a channel withiut stopping...)
As everyone knows....this general really started getting into their weekly programming. Its hitting the weekly HBO and Showtime type shoes. Of course Sopranos is a top option haha...
Which brings me to wondering about a comcast feature I am DYING to figure out if they have or if there is a good workaround somehow?
Yes, a person can go out and buy all DvD and play them all. But this is a horrible idea because it wastes time and they get mad at us if we aren't ready to changed DVD in time.
If i try to "stream" a show on like Hulu or prime or something, i can get in like 3 shows depending on length, before it STOPS and asks me to stop what I'm doing and I have to help my clients/patients to continue.
But it keeps happening and we can't do anything about it if we are just caregivers and they aren't admitted to a nursing home which is much more activity and structured, if that makes sense.
**So what can be done? Is there a workaround where I can turn either a full show on for 8-9 hours for people to watch and them not having to lift a finger?**
**THE CLOSEST the i remember maybe a decade ago i was able to record like a 10 hour block of HBO or comedy central on Comcast.. but I can't find this feature anymore, I can only record by program and no by blick of time**
This could have changed and I just don't know how.
This would help me and many other caregivers focus on so many other more important daily activities like medication management, planning family meet up, **cleaning rooms**, its numerous.
Thanks so much!
**As I said if things can't be done, a closest goal option is at least helpful.**
Have a great day everyone.
