DVR recordings disappeared

All my recordings prior to 12/31/2018 disappeared today without me deleting them.  Is there another problem that has occurred with the cloud recordings or has the daily update just removed older recordings?

 

There was was sufficient space so please don't tell me that they were deleted to make room for new recordings.

do you have more than one DVR? did you try rebooting the DVR? do the old recordings show up using the Xfinity TV remote app?

We only have 1 DVR and it was rebooted as soon as we noticed the recordings disappeared.

The recordings on the remote app also show that everything recorder earlier than 12/31/2018 have disappeared without us deleting them.

I have escalated your issue to the Comcast Team available to these forums. Check back often for a reply in this thread from a Comcast Official Employee. I hope that is not so long ago that logs do not exist.

Never resolved. It happened again last month and everything from December 31 - March 31 disappeared. Xfinity is not taking any responsibility for the problem and only suggests rebooting the DVR and updating

@shimadk1 - My apologies for your experience. I asked you to send me a private message back on March 18th and haven't received a reply or PM since then.

This happened to me too.  I had 37% full on my DVR, then yesterday I went to watch a recorded show and it was only 4% full.  I live alone so no one deleted it here.  

 

Was there a resolution?  Clearly it happened to a lot of customers.

 

thanks

Clearly it’s a problem that xfinity/Comcast doesn’t want to acknowledge or take responsibility for. It happened to me twice since March and no explanation was ever given.
