All of a sudden I can't record movies on TCM. What's going on?

Hello, @D-amsbaugh. I have not heard of a known issue affecting DVR recordings on TCM. Were there any other recordings set up at the same time? If there were, how many were set to record?

@user_9a0b38, is this happening when trying to record all content on TCM or just movies? When I test this issue, I can record movies on TCM, so this issue does not seem related to restrictions. I don't watch this network often, but I don't want you to miss out on your favorites! When you have a chance try resetting all your equipment and devices. If the issue still exists send us a private message with your name and service address so we can help. Click on the little chat message bubble icon in the upper right and send a private chat to "Xfinity Support."

I too am unable to record.   Items scheduled to record  in the guide show a 'red slash'.   Is this specific to TCM?

I just picked up a new 24 month Xfinity contract with a new XG1v4 DVR and found the same problem with trying to record from TCM (circle with red slash never seen before with old DVR).  Likewise with recording some other channels such as HBO, but not all channels.  I suspect it's the new system I now have.

Please resolve.

I seem to get the same thing. I can’t record from tcm and the red circle with the slash saying not recorded.

Hello @user_40eb27 and thank you for joining our Xfinity Support Forums. This was a known issue for series recordings some time back, and was marked as resolved. That said, broadcasters can dictate that certain content is not eligible for recording (namely PPV events, music choice channels, etc.)

 

If you are setting a series recording, we recommend cancelling the series recording and resetting it. If you are still experiencing issues, please create a new thread detailing the issues present, any error codes/messages you receive, and steps taken to resolve. If you need assistance with troubleshooting, we have a support page available for TV services here: TV Services Help and Support
