Cable questions

Why can’t you store saved programs from oldest to newest?? That makes the most sense

Hello, @Amsbtn 

 

On the X1 DVR, recordings are automatically managed by the system, which deletes the oldest recordings first when space is needed. This means that while you can save programs, the DVR does not allow you to manually store them in a specific order from oldest to newest. Instead, the most recent recordings will replace older ones unless they are marked as "For 1 Year." Therefore, the storage is managed automatically based on capacity needs rather than user preference for order. I'm happy to share your feedback as there may be a possibility for changes in the future.
