Can't set recordings from stream app

So this has happened to me before on occasion but not lately, but today I tried to set recordings for several different things using the xfinity stream app and for some reason today the option just isn't there. Over the weekend I also just happened to read that Comcast just lost a decision by the ITC in favor of Rovi in a patent suit saying that Comcast is infringing on Rovi's patent for the technology in the app that is used to set recordings on mobile devices for X1 set top boxes. So I'm just wondering is it just a coincidence that it's not even an option for me today and perhaps due to maintenance of some kind on the app, or did Comcast temporarily pull this technology from the app as a result of the ruling by the ITC? Thanks very much to anyone who can shed some light on this.

Trying to find where to go to set a recording from my phone when I am delayed in arriving home. The game shows as not available to stream and on x1 app no record button or link can be found. Tried logging into my account which refers me to the app. Tried Stream, TV app and Remote TV app.

This is just stupid. Can't set recordings remotely anymore? Really?

Pay the people for the right to do so!

Can we schedule shows to record from remote locations if we forget to schedule when at home?

Has anyone here demanded money back for a service we were promised under contract that was taken away?

Not sure if this is the right place to lose this question..... but, is it possible to use the app or website to record a program on our tv at home? Thanks.

Well all this did was convince me never to get TiVo which is the same as Rivo. Rivo bought TiVo.

Because TiVo took Comcast to court saying that Comcast was illegally using the technology to record programs from their app. TiVo claimed they have the patent and nobody else can use it. The courts agreed.

I used to be able to set up a recording with my DVR when I was at work either through my iPad or the Xfinity website.  It appears that I can no longer do that.

Until recently, I could record TV programs from my PC and then play them back later on my TV. Now that "Record" button is gone. When I visited my local Xfinity location, they knew of the change but couldn't explain why the change was made - they were given no warning either. What's up?
