Xfinity Support

My DVR says that it's only 40% full. I cannot see all my recordings on the streaming app. Why is that.? I see a lot of things about a sync needing to be done. How do you do that? Why do you need to do that?

Hi there, user_uhbhfv! I love that you can use the DVR service in the Xfinity Stream app! I download recordings and watch them offline which saves on my mobile data. Syncing the DVR will ensure the recordings that are on the cable box match what is shown in the Cloud. This process usually happens automatically, but sometimes it is necessary to sync them. I see this happen most often when there was a change to the package or equipment on the account but there can be other causes as well.

 

Can you please try these steps?

Using the Xfinity remote:

1. Click Xfinity button

2. Select settings (the gear icon)

3. Select Device Settings

4. Select Sync DVR

 

Let me know if that fixes things up for you or not. I am happy to help!

That did not work.

When I did that it did the command very quickly.  So I tried again and still can't see everything on the streaming app.

Thanks for trying that out, user_uhbhfv! The signal is usually fast but the DVR information should also show right away in the app after that. Let's take a look at your account to ensure the equipment and DVR service all look good on my end and go from there.

user_uhbhfv, we are not seeing that direct message on our end. Can you attempt to send it over once more?
