Screen background playing

Is there any way to get a view of stuff recorded on my dvr that may have come from a video recorder and not from the TV channels.

I have a tremendous amount of background playing on my tv

Sorry, I don't understand your question. What do you mean by "background playing on my TV"?  What exactly are you seeing?  What DVR model do you have?  What do you mean by "video recorder"?

DTV DVRs can't record anything that doesn't come from the sat channels or On Demand.

DirecTV does not record anything from the TV set itself, from a VCR, or any other recorder. It records from the service itself, before it gets to the TV.

DirecTV satellite or from On Demand > DVR > TV.

Also don't know what you mean by "background playing on TV".
