This thread was created in regards to Recorded Programming, don’t want it to wander off to issues with Live TV. The problem with alerts during recorded programming may have been fixed because I don’t think we’ve experienced it in a while. btw - I've been unable to login to the Communtiy Forum for days. Received this on multiple browsers, multiple PC's & multiple user id's: HTTP Status 401 -

No, I did not fix it. Xfinity needs to fix it. The alert is too long (repeating) & too loud. I rarely watch Live TV, but they shouldn't force the alert on those of us watching recorded programming.

I didn't fix it. Even tho the alert had happened many hours earlier it was showing up when we tried to watch a program late at night (11 PM) on cloud DVR. However, it was not part of the recording, just an interruption at the start of our recorded program. & yes, it repeated over & over. Weeks later it happened again with another alert, we sat thru the entire 4-minute repeating alert & then our normal programming started. About halfway thru the show we made the mistake of switching to another TV, to finish watching the same recorded program. It made us sit thru the entire 4-minute emergency alert again because we had switched to another device. I'm surprised more people aren't complaining.

So, it didn't have anything to do with my old TV (kinda thought that). Communicated with Comcast employee John via Chat & he found a "Service Pending" request or some such & got it resolved.
All good now.
thanks John 🙂

Hi,
We just upgraded to 140+ channels & were sent a new X1 TV set box that I want to use on an old CRT tube TV. Have completed the setup process and cannot get any channels below #187 (Hallmark). In otherwords no ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, SYFY, etc. Have refreshed & restarted the X1, no help.
We are receiving gobs of channels above 187, starting with 666 (QVC-2) going into the 1,000's - or I should say they appear in the guide. Nothing below 187 appears in the TV Guide 😞
Also I tried to change the device settings for video from 16:9, 720P HD to 4:3 480i SD & even tho it looks like it's working it does not & the X1 remains on 16:9, 720P HD. Don't know if that matters or not but I certainly don't expect to revcieve HD channels on that TV.
Thanks

Sorry for delayed response, for some reason I could not get logged in, redirect...
That's great info. We do indeed own our own equipment so doubt we'll be leasing either one of those gateways.
One set top box & the streaming app along with the cloud sounds promising. More than adequate for our purposes I imagine.
thank you again.

Hey, thanks.
Can I pick your brain a bit more?
I doubt the set top boxes or DVR are wireless? I don't mean thru the router. The TV's have changed location & the coax comig out of the wall is no longer close to the TV.
Do the set top boxes from Xfinity connect to the DVR local storage?
Does the Xfinity cloud DVR space behave like the local DVR storage? In other words Hulu will not allow us to FF thru commercials even while watching a show in the cloud DVR. Feels like defeating the purpose of having DVR.
thank you for your assistance 🐵

Hi,
we haven't had cable TV for quite a while, just HSI.
Hulu is no longer a gem - prices going up, too many problems. Hulu's poor DVR functionality is really driving us away.
It would appear we can save some money by purchasing TV from Xfinity, again. Have come full circle.
My question: We have three TV's. If we add Xfinfity TV to our plan with only one set top box it appears we can use the Roku devices on the remaining two TV's. According to this topic dated 4/2/2019 "the Xfinity Stream app is still in beta mode & does not include the full set of features & functionality included in the Xfinity Stream app for mobile devices & web portal."
On Roku - does the Xfinfity Stream app work like a set top box for DVR & LiveTV?
Does it work as well as Hulu & YoutubeTV?
Thank you
