If I search for the shows using voice remote, I can see them and that they are set to record, but when I look at scheduled recording they are not there. I record tons of shows over the weekend on a weekly basis and none show up. These are all new episodes not reruns Most of these shows are affiliated with the networks in the new Discovery Plus. Are the being taken OFF the regular channels (Travel, Discovery etc) to be exclusive on the new app?  EDIT: NVM Turn out if I select 'all devices' on the top of the DVR menu they show up. For some reason I checked our second cable box (non DVR) and saw all the missing shows, set to 'all devices" the living room DVR was set only to living room, no clue what happened.  ... View more

It looks like Travel will no longer carry new episodes of Dead Files, and I'm hearing many other shows as well. No one seems to know. Does anyone know which shows (new episodes) are exclusively going to be on DSCV +? ... View more

I swapped out my old X1 box for the new ones that support 4K. I hadn't hooked up the new box when I got home, but played with the remote and entered to codes for my receiver and TV.  Yesterday the new TV arrived, hooked it and the new X1 box. Called Comcast to activate the new box, since it wasn't added to my account when I picked it up. They sent a signal, I saw the greeting screen,  and when I tried to select the language, nada. Then a gray box popped up saying the remote was paired with another box. On the phone with several agents, each had me press A  + D, then punch in 981 to unpair. Nothing. For context, the remote in question is the XR 15. Many box resets and much frustration later, I threw my hands up. My old remote DID control my receiver, but it doesnt now. I'm not sure if the service center is open today (July 4th) or not, if so I'll have to swap the remote I guess, I really want TV this weekend. Any tech minded folks have any insight as to why/how this happened, and how to maybe fix?  ... View more

Went down and picked up a 4K DVR today, will hook it up over the next few days. KI asked the girl in the store if there was a way to have our recordings, and more importantly all the shows we have set to record to migrate over to the new box. She said there was a cloud setting that would do both those things and it would be in settings. I'm not finding it anywhere. Is what I was told true about recordings and shows set to record automatically going to the new box, and if so, how to I make sure this happens? ... View more

So far I only see this on the Travel Channel. I record Expedition Unknown, and there's also a show hosted by Josh, called Expedition X, and typically also an "After the Hunt" show.  I wasn't finding Exp X or the "After' show, just one 3 hour recording, so I assumed it was old Expedition shows bundled together like Ghost Adventures does sometimes. I decided to check out the show, and found that even though the listing only said Exp Unk, the other 2 shows were also in that 3 hour recording. Other night I went to play a recording of a new Dead Files, and it was Ghost Adventures, so I  was confused where Dead Files was. Turns out the first hour was Ghost Adventures, and THEN Dead Files. The same episode of Ghost Adventures  oddly ALSO recorded separately by itself. Is this something that can be fixed? Messes up my recordings when they aren't separated. X1 box by the way ... View more
