DVR recording all shows not "only New"
I have my cloud-based DVR service set to record new shows only and to keep 4 episodes. It is recording old shows also and more than I selected. in some instances it is showing it has kept over 20.

My cloud-based DVR was not working correctly. I contacted customer support and received a replacement unit. The new one is detecting new shows only and recording only the number of episodes selected.

It depends on the quality of the Guide data Comcast gets from their provider, and what the networks send to the provider. If there is no New/Repeat flag, it is treated as new.

you can look at upcoming recordings. if the episode is not marked 'repeat' then it will be recorded.

knowing they are repeats and havng the listing flag 'repeat' are two different things. look at the listing. does it say 'new' "repeat" or nothing?
