Hulu/Peacki Without Changing Out Main DVR

I can no longer get Hulu or Peacock on my main cable box. It says I need new equipment, but this will likely cause me to lose some of my recorded shows. I don't want that. What can be done?  I can get both on my additional cable boxes that we have in other rooms.

Other than not swapping, nothing. You will lose some recordings, so whichever is more important

I have two main DVR cable boxes. One I can get Peacock and Hulu and the other says I need new equipment. Why? I have an extended system on both and the “new” box doesn’t allow the connections I need along with my universal remotes. Again why does one box work with these apps and the same identical box in another room does not wo4k?

@Jbwflp Thank you for contacting us about this concern. You are only able to have one main DVR and then additional ones. Did you receive a second one as a replacement or is this for an additional outlet? If so, it may just be the way the boxes are set up in our system. We can check for you. Please make sure to create your own post as this one will be closed as it is almost a year old.
