How Do I Record?

I set up a server on my RP. Created an account/subscription. I can log into the server and see all the settings, etc. Loaded Channels app on my Ipad and on my Apple TV. I can connect to the server on both. I can connect to my HDHomerun unit and see the channels. I can watch live TV on either app. But I can't find out how to record anything. I click on a show that comes on later. It pops up and tells me all about it, but nowhere is there any record button.

What am I doing wrong?

It sounds like you didn't apply a lineup to your HDHR. Go back to the settings in your Channels DVR Server web admin and find it under Sources. Enter your zip code and apply the correct lineup. Once you do that, it will fetch guide data. Once Channels DVR Server has guide data, you will be able to record.

Ok, that did it. I just assumed since the guide showed up ok it was setup ok.

Next question if you don't mind. If I click on the channel number itself it just brings up a screen saying what is coming up. shouldn't that start watching that channel instead of me having to select the first program?

That's working correctly. This is the On Later view of that channel, allowing you to see all of the shows, movies, and events that are available on that channel.

Just pick the program to watch the channel.
