Recording settings

I’m new to DIRECTV Streaming although I’ve been a satellite customer for 1-+ years. I’m using the Gemini devices as the Samsung app doesn’t work and I found Roku app very clunky to navigate. 

I want to ask how to: 

1.  How to change the default record settings such that pressing the record button twice will set the series and only record NEW episodes. 

2.  How do I extend the stop recording beyond the scheduled end time. I want to do this when recording live events such as sports. when

Sadly, neither of those things is possible with the DirecTV Stream service. At least, not yet.

Hi, @BemmedinTC. The configuration of the record button cannot be changed as the Cloud DVR features are displayed on the screen, while sports recordings are automatically extended when the content continues streaming past the scheduled time set by the programmer. Please note that this feature is available for qualified events only. More info on Cloud DVR here: https://www.directv.com/support/article/000069768 Kesiah, DIRECTV Community Team
