[HD] Severe MPEG4 DVR playback issues on only one program

I have a non-X1, and have had minor issues with 30-sec skip and FF sometimes jumping ahead too far. Usually, REW will back up cleanly so I can pick up where I want to. For the past two weeks, I have run into a MAJOR issues with recordings of "American Pickers" on History. I record the Monday 'repeat' at about 12AM CDT. Not only will it skip forward 5+ minutes instead of 30-seconds, even the rewind jumps too! It will literally skip over the show, and just jump to the next commercial, or the commercial before the show when rewinding. Even more bizarre, this Monday's recording said 64 minutes in the recording list (63 minutes of show + 1 minute added for extra overrun), but the timebar was only 53 minutes. For the first 10-11 minutes, the time bar did not advance and stayed at 0. The best I have been able to do with this show is rewind back to what I hope is the 'last' commercial so I can actually watch the show. What is bizarre is that it only seems to be "American Pickers". I recorded "Forged in Fire" and the spinoff "Knife or Death" yesterday, and they are 'normal' in how they act as far as MPEG4. Anyone notice similar issues?
