If you watch less than 5 minutes of something you have on DVR, they don't get ratings credit for it. So I make sure I only watch the 3 minute local weather spot and then delete it.
Yep, that's the way to do it... I'll watch live sports to keep up with chatter here sometimes or texts, but there's generally a "watching live or recording?" starter over text.

I'm very rarely only watching TV though, so if I'm not live it's mute + internet for a few minutes.... with the downside being that sometimes there are so many damn commercials that I'll get distracted and realize 20 minutes later that it's still muted (then I can just rewind and skip through it).
