Can I access cloud recordings from the Roku Xfinity Stream app?

Was looking to possibly get an X1 box with 20hrs of cloud recording. If I do, can I then also access the cloud recordings from my Roku via the Xfinity Stream app?

mfranch88 To confirm, our DVR service is stored on the DVR, but the cloud storage can be accessed without needing a DVR itself. Are you trying to also get the recordings on the TiVo's with the cable cards? If you just want cloud storage, you wouldn't need an X1 DVR, but would need an X1 box as cable cards wouldn't have access to the cloud storage of the recordings.

I realize the tivo and x1 cloud recordings are 2 totally separate items and not compatible with each other. At some point, I will probably phase out the TiVos. Therefore, I was hoping X1 cloud recordings could be accessed from other devices like roku and fire sticks (w/ xfinity stream apps)

mfranch88 That is possible, and you would just need to add cloud storage for that. Did you want to move forward with just adding cloud storage to the account, or that and an X1 box. You can keep the 2 cards for the TiVo's either way.

If possible, I would like to add JUST cloud storage to my account, but also keep my tivo cable cards active.

What would the cost be to add JUST cloud storage. And how much would I get; 20hrs, 150hrs. etc?

assuming if I add just cloud storage and no x1 box, I would then access these recordings through the xfinity stream app (on my Roku and/or firestick). Is this correct too?
