The good news is that you can check and see if the DVR will work without getting any spoilers.
I use the DVR a lot using the Chrome browser on my desktop to skip commercials. Especially on ESPN channels, it will occasionally lock up when I try to skip forward. It is pretty easy to refresh the page and get back to where I was, but a minor annoyance. I have this on two difference computers but I haven't seen reports of other people having this problem.
As you slide the bar forward to skip commercials, you get a thumbnail preview of the video which makes it easier to see how far to go.

I don't believe that is correct. I've never seen that before, and I've recorded tons of games. If you've clicked the "+" button to record the game before the game has aired, then you can absolutely start from the beginning, or anywhere you choose. I've done that countless times. If you click the record button while the game is already in progress, you'll likely see the behavior you've described. But not if you set it to record before game time.
