DVR recordings disappeared

All my recordings prior to 12/31/2018 disappeared today without me deleting them.  Is there another problem that has occurred with the cloud recordings or has the daily update just removed older recordings?

 

There was was sufficient space so please don't tell me that they were deleted to make room for new recordings.

Hello all, thanks for reaching out to our Forums! I apologize for any inconvenience or frustration this may have caused. After 1 year, the old recordings on your cloud DVR will automatically be deleted. Are you experiencing this on the more recent recordings as well?

Yes, it's happened for more recent recordings than 1 year.  Additionally, I'm not even sure the 1 year timeframe you reference is accurate, as I have had movies recorded on my dvr for nearly two years that had stayed there this entire time up until last week.

I’m having this exact same issue. Recordings on my cloud DVR are randomly disappearing from all DVRs and the cloud (online). I’m at well under 50% on my DVR, the recordings are less than 6 weeks old, and I’ve set the series to not delete until 1 year. Very frustrating as holding onto shows and trusting them to be there is the whole point of paying for DVR service. Please help.

I most certainly can @hawkleaf. Now that you have made a public post, please follow the steps above to send me a private message. If possible, please provide as many details about the recordings that are missing so I can pass this info along to the engineers that are investigating. Chat with you soon.

I have this issue also. In addition, I don't see the option to send PMs. (I am registered and signed in, btw).

All my recorded shows have vanished, and it isn't even letting me look at saved shows.  It is like the dvr has vanished completely from the account.

Yes, NONE of my shows that have disappeared are more than 2 months old.

I'm having the same problem. More than half my recordings were deleted. It was a mixture old ones from last year and new.
