DVR: "Previously aired programs cannot be recorded" msg when record show in progress.

Just installed my replacement dvr.  When hitting the record button on a show I'm watching, I get the followingnn error: "Previously aired programs cannot be recorded" .  I have never gotten this on my previous and other DVR's.

Google only has one hit for this, and no hits in Verizon.

How do I turn this restriction off?

Nevermind, this works now.  Must have been a temporary guide sync issue.

Note you will hit that if you try to record when the program is thought (by the dvr) to be for an earlier time slot.  e.g. you see rewinded to the previous time slot (perhaps to find the beginning of a show you want to record), but the show started ealier than the quide shows. Pehaps you want to record Modern Family, but guide thinks you asking to record Suburgatory which aired ealier.
