There's a couple of ways to set recording under/overrides which do different 
things.

In Settings -> TV Settings -> Recording Priorities -> Set Recording Properties 
(Page 1) you can set default 'Start Early' and 'End Late' times. If you set 
these it will cause conflicts and will stop back to back programs from 
recording if you don't have enough available tuners.

In Settings -> TV Settings -> General (Page 4) you can set 'Time to record 
before start of show' and the end of. If you set these then myth will record 
before and after a show if there's an available tuner, otherwise it won't and 
won't cause conflicts.

There's also the settings for a specific recording as you mentioned already.
