Forced Ads on Recorded Shows

I’m a Directv satellite customer. I was used to watching my recorded shows through the app without commercials. Now all of a sudden, my recordings force ads that you can’t skip or fast forward through on the app. The whole point of recording is to avoid the annoying commercials. I understand it’s different when you watch a show On Demand. Why does the app force commercials on a show that’s recorded?

What show(s)?

What channel(s)?

I've never had this issue watching a recording from a regular satellite channel, only OnDemand.
