Cant Access recordings

I cannot access my all of my recorded shows on my bedroom tv. They show up on the main dvr and i can play them there, but some of the older movies no longer show up on the box in the bedroom. I have tried Syncing , restarting, system refresh. I was able to play all recordings until last week

Based on what you have said, make sure you dont accidentally have a filter set to only show recorded programs on your bedroom box. You can do this like so : Xfinity > Arrow key (left or right depending on the location of the cursor) > Saved > Scroll all the way up to the very top where it says sort by, recorded on etc. You'll want to select recorded on, and be certain All Devices is selected. If you need more help, just say so and i'll do my best to help. Hope this helps you.

 

Stay Safe,

How unusal, I can't say i've heard of this sort of issue before. Could be a frimware bug.
What troubleshooting steps have you taken other the steps you mentioned?
Have you contacted customer support, if so what did they say?
Can you tell me what model of box you have?
Also, can you go to settings>About> About Xfinity TV, and let me know what it says? Apologies if thats not the correct location.  It could also be under Settings>General>About. You can also say "About" into your voice remote if you have one.

Ill await your response.

Stay Safe,

I don't think that is the issue since the recordings are still available on the DVR.  They recently switched the bedroom box to a wireless. When it was first installed we were able to access the older recordings, but not now. The box is an Xi6-6

Was this issue ever resolved? I am having the same issue. We have an X1 dvr with a year+ worth of recordings, that have been visible in all rooms until last night. Now we only see a handful of programs on our master bedroom wireless box. Tried changing the "recorded on" setting with no change. Did a full system refresh, no change. The full list of recordings is still visible on our other 2 coax connected tv boxes. Interested in if a fix was ever identified?

One day they all reappeared. I restarted everything numerous times. Completely shut down everything, and nothing worked. Now they are all back on all Boxes. Still no explanation.

As of about 4 days ago, I am experiencing the same problem. We can see a list of more than 20 recordings on our bedroom TV but only four on our living room set. Filters are set to all on both.

 

I have rebooted the entire system several times, but the problem persists.

when the wifi connected set top box can not communicate with the in-home DVR it connects to and shows content only on the cloud DVR (from a Comcast server). The first step would be to reboot the internet gateway/modem, then the X1 DVR, then the wireless TV set top box to restart the MoCA over ethernet network.
