Controlling recordings to DVR from web site

I know I can set up recordings (ex: NCIS seasons) from the Direct web site. Then we can watch them from the DVR at our leisure. Right now I can't seem to find out how.

Better and easier to use the Directv app, if you have it. Yes, I believe you can do it from the website too though I’ve never tried it.

If you want to do it from the website 

login to your account

in the upper right click “watch directv”

in the menu bar at the top - click on Guide

when the guide comes up select the program 

the pop-up screen will allow you to watch or record to tv 

not sure if it works when your not on your local network

This has become extremely difficult to do.   Previously, I could log onto DirecTV.com/guide, select a program and click record.    Now I have to cycle through endless ATT screens then go to an incredibly messed up guide and if the program is in process, I have to stream it before clicking record.

Please restore a quick and easy way to set up a recording remotely.
