Does no one on here know ? Really ? I thought a few of the regular American
posters were well into U.S. transmission standards and composition, or is
that analogue only ?

I don't know the answer to your question because I don't know what CRID is.

Is that supposed to be some standard, who is using it? Except for a mention
as a draft in RFC 4078, my google finger is failing me.

As far as I know, most people dvr's here in the states use the guide and
rely on the data provided to it. So if Fox says American Idol is going to
run from 8pm to 9:04pm, if the guide is programmed to show that, the dvr
will record it. If it's an accidental overrun, no, the end of the program
will get cut off.

I noticed some dvr's like from Comcast seem to keep track of shows that
usually overrun, when you try to record it, a new screen pops up saying it
may do so and gives you an option to record past the shown end time in
minutes.

Except for some low powered stations, there are no analog broadcasts here
anymore. I know they used to bury some neat **** hidden in the signal back
then, but these days, no clue.
