roglaura,

When a recording is setup you can cancel it a few ways.

If you press the STOP button on the remote control it will ask if you wish to stop the recording. You can also change the channel from the TV that is recording to stop the recording.

A slightly longer way to do it would be press the DVR button 3 times to the daily schedule. Go to the timer and you can stop or delete it from there. If you delete the timer it will stop it from recording at all if it hasn't started yet.

If you have any questions let me know here!
