Solution:
To see if the program was recorded then deleted, press MENU, select “Recordings”, then “Manage Recordings”, then in the
left menu, select “History”.
If the recording was cancelled due to a scheduling conflict, you will need to record the program again and if necessary you
will need to adjust the programming priority. See the “Manage Recordings: Series Manager” section in Chapter 4 for details.
Check the Parental Locks on your receiver and TV. Adjust the content ratings, if necessary.

Your DIRECTV DVR can record up to two programs at once, or it can record one program while you watch another live program.
Possible Causes:
You tried to record three programs at the same time or tried to watch a live program while recording two others at the same time.
There was an overlap in the programs you tried to record.
Solution:
If you tried to record three programs at once, or watch a live TV program with two others recording, you will need to decide
which recording to cancel.
If the overlap is a couple of minutes (for example, some networks occasionally start programs at 8:59 instead of 9:00 p.m.),
adjust your recording start and end time Recording Options. See the “Changing a Record Option” section in Chapter 4.
Someone else manually deleted the program.
The hard drive on your DVR is full. The program may not have recorded.
