App: Recorded tab
In the RECORDED tab you can find all recordings made by all of your connected HDHomeRun DVR storage devices on your local network, if you have an HDHomeRun DVR subscription. Recordings are organized by “All recordings”, “Shows”, and “Movies”.
The DVR system remembers where you stopped watching and will let you resume on another device. For example, if you were watching a recorded movie on your TV via your Xbox One, you could stop the video, go into another room, and resume watching on your iPad.
When viewing a TV show, news program, or sports with multiple entries, then you will see a list view below the program summary. On the left-hand side you will see a selection by season or year, which also includes “Upcoming” and “Recent” sorting options:
- Upcoming - live and future airings of that program.
- Recent - most recent recordings, sorted by newest, for that program.
Selecting/clicking a program will play that program. Pressing the right arrow on a remote control, or clicking the right arrow icon on the ride-hand side of that row, will show additional options for that recording:
- If the selected program will air in the future, you will also see time, date, and channel number for those future airings. Selecting those airings can set up a one-off recording.
- Auto-record - will open the series recording options
- Watch from start - will start the recording from the beginning (in the case the the program was already being watched).
- Delete recording - will delete that specific recording from the DVR storage device.
Pressing to the right of a row will open a menu of actions to take on that recording. Select delete and this will present three options:
- Delete - will confirm the deletion and permanently delete the recording from your DVR storage.
- Re-record - will re-record a specific movie or episode at a later time if you still have a recording task for that program. Useful in case a given recording had an issue, such as if a programming error occurred or a storm had caused reception issues.
- Cancel - will back out of the deletion process.
If you delete the actual file off of your DVR storage, instead of deleting the recording through the HDHomeRun app, it will behave like the “Re-record” option.
