RECORDING A SINGLE SHOW

FROM LIVE TV

To record a show you are currently watching, simply press
RECORD once.

FROM THE GUIDE

You don't have to be watching a show to record it. Simply find
it in the Program Guide and press the RECORD button. The
orange record icon appears to confirm that your show is being
recorded or is scheduled to record.
NOTE: If you have a Genie HD DVR (HR34, HR44 & above), you
can record up to five shows simultaneously. Otherwise, you can
record two shows at the same time on previous model DIRECTV
DVR. You can record two shows at the same time with your
DIRECTV DVR, if you have made the proper connections to your
satellite dish.

CHANGING A RECORD OPTION

Some live events and even a few TV shows run past their
allotted time slot. Although your DVR is very smart, it sets up
all recordings based on the start and stop times the content
partners provide give us for the Program Guide.
