I'm not surprised that it advances on the end. The VCR doesn't know where the end of the taped programme is. You will have to search manually for it. Start at the end of the tape and rewind a few minutes worth of recording then press 'play' and see what you get. If not successful rewind further and try again, etc,etc. Alternatively you could press "play +rewind" which should allow you to watch the record on what is fast (=x2) rewind. It will help you if you know how long the show was and at what point the tape was when recording started.
Sounds like a problem with your box. you need to either have dish come replace it or u dont have the right reciever that will allow you to do that. If it is the right reciever and its still not working the dish company should be able to help trouble shoot the problem or send someone out to fix it. sounds to me like a faulty box that needs trashed.
Is the erasure prevention tab missing from a commercial or previously recorded cassette? It would leave a little (about 1/8" square) hole in the spine edge of the cassette shell. That tab is there to prevent accidental erasure by allowing a small sensor lever to drop in and mechanically disable the recording mechanism. Compare a commercial cassette with a brand new blank one. You can place a piece of adhesive tape on the casette to allow recording, but take care to NOT cover more than the first 1/8" of the opening if it is larger as the recorder also senses tape type by the length of the hole molded into the cassette.
Word to the wise - don't scrimp on the tape if the recording matters to you. Spend a bit extra for better tapes. Store the tapes 'played', avoid fast forwarding and rewinding unless you'll be playing them through to wrap the tape uniformly before storing it INSIDE its tape box. Read the other warnings that come with the media. No heat, moisture, dust, blah-blah.
Hi djn Collinswhen your DVR is not allowing you to pause or rewind live TV you will need tounplug the receiver for 10 seconds and allow the receiver to power back up and acquirethe signal. Then you will want to try the functions again and make sure theyare working fully.

Do you have a remote?
Some camcorders you have to hit the record pause button on the remote and then hit pause.
It then begins recording.
I hope this works for you.
