DVR issue

[ac1]

I taped some shows for my kids from channel 169. I then changed packages so I no longer have that.channel. Now when I try to turn on those shows for my kids to watch it says I can't watch the DVR recordings because I am not subscribed to that channel. Is this correct? Past DVRs we have had allowed me to watch shows from channels I did not still have.

Yep. This is one non-consumer friendly change. There will be more.

So the days of taping all of the movies during free preview weekends are over?

for some channels it will work and some it won't. I believe it was Zach who mentioned that some channels only allow temporary rights while you have the channel.
