One feature of DirecTV’s DVR that I like is its ability to manually record a channel at a specific day of the week and time of day on a recurring basis. For instance, if there is a news program that airs every weeknight at 6:00 pm, and I only want to record the Friday broadcast, I can set that up in DirecTV’s DVR. Is that functionality possible in Channels?
You can setup a season pass for that show, then use the web ui to edit the pass and add “Time CONTAINS Friday” to the rule.
Great! Thanks. If I wanted to record that same show every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, would I have to create a Pass for each day?
Hmmm, yes I guess so.
