Anyway, I have personally cleared the hard drive on my VMC of anything that is unnecessary and I simply record the whole lot. Interestingly, I have found precious little to play at normal speed other than the occasional soccer or hockey match. The rest gets skipped through as quickly as possible.
An interesting side note is that VMC doesn't seem to be particularly consistent in remembering the last place I watched up to in the recording and often does not give me a "resume" option. I'm wondering if there's an issue with such large files or is it that I am watching some of it before the recording is finished?

Wow this sounds familiar! The skip button is getting a work out for those things they just repeat over and over like the gold performances and medal presentations, I counted 5 times yesterday for whats her name in the pool! While they are repeating this stuff they leave out other interesting stuff. Lucky 7 is promoting TiVo so more people can skip the crap!
I've seen the same thing with resume, but narrowed it down to only losing the resume position while its still recording. I've taken to pausing and then back to other things, this has successfully left the resume point at all times. Perhaps give that a try.
