Random recordings

My DVR keeps recording random shows that I am not scheduling it to record. I even look at the scheduled recordings and the shows do not show up on the list but it seems like it's recording the same show on a weekly basis. I live alone and I'm the only person who has access to my account so I don't understand how it is possible these shows are getting recorded. The DVR is also recording old episodes of shows that I do want recorded but only the new episodes I'm wanting. It seems to have a mind of its own.

Having the same DVR recording random programs problem. Have had a session with xfinity about a month ago but the random recordings returned. Is this a network security issue? Very worried.
