Missing DVR recordings on Streaming App

I have 15 recordings on my DVR (6%), but when I try to watch them on the streaming app (ipad or computer) there are only 5 available to watch.  I have read other posts and have completed all the steps suggested: 

  1. Check Your Network Connection: Ensure your device is connected to the internet. A stable connection is necessary for the app to function correctly.

  2. Sync Your DVR: On your X1 TV box remote, press the Xfinity button, navigate to the gear icon for settings, and select "Device Settings." Scroll down to "Sync DVR" and select "Sync DVR Now."

  3. Check Cloud DVR Storage: If your Cloud DVR storage is full, it can prevent new recordings from showing up. Check your storage and delete older recordings if necessary.

  4. Verify Your Subscription Status: Make sure your Xfinity subscription is active and includes DVR service. Changes in your subscription could impact your ability to view recordings.

  5. Restart Your Device: Sometimes, restarting your device can clear temporary software glitches that might be causing the issue.

  6. Log Out and Log Back In: This can help resolve synchronization issues between your device and Xfinity’s services.

I have not made any changes to my subscription.  However, I did receive an email stating that I have "Diamond Status", I don't know if that changed anything in my subscription.

Please look into this so I am able to see all my recordings in the streaming app.  Thank you.

I am experiencing the same problem this morning and also see a reddit post from todaywiththesame problem. Random recordings are missing from my streaming app and the Super Bowl, which I recorded and then deleted from my DVR is still showing in my streaming app.  I have also done all the steps outlined and they have not fixed the problem.

Hello,

I have the same issue.  My DVR says I have eight recordings and is 33% full but there are literally zero recordings showing for me to watch.   I contacted customer support to no avail.

Mine seems to have been fixed overnight.  I can see everything without issue now.

I have the same problem!

I also cannot delete programs until the “delete show now?” prompt pops up, I’ve had this problem for several months.

I’m hoping Xfinity realizes this is a system issue and fixes it.  I’m sure there are more dealing with this than just us.

I called their tech support earlier and reported it but I’m not sure if they’re tracking it.  I’d call and report it to them too.

I’m having the same issue. Says I have 3 recordings but they do not appear in the list. I have completed all the suggested actions and it still doesn’t work.

My issue seems to have resolved itself this morning.  I can see everything without issue now.  Hope it’s the same for everyone else!

Oh no!  I don’t know what changed to get mine to work.  I talked to customer service yesterday and they said they were sending a sync signal to my box so that may have done the trick.  My monthly bill also auto paid last night so maybe their system reauthorized since it showed me paid current. 

I really don’t know and wish I could help.
