Record All Games for Specific Teams

I have a Directv Genie 2. I'm trying to record all the NCAA Basketball games for both Men and Women for my Big Ten College. I seem to be able to get the Men's games to record but not the Women's. I've selected the Team and recorded the series. Any ideas as to why one will record going forward but not the other. Thanks.

Hi @jsbluffton,

 

We will be happy to help.

 

The NCAA Basketball games for men and women are scheduled and made available for viewing through contracts and scheduling.  On Directv website, select an episode and click to record series. There is a possibility the you will need select by individual games.  

 

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your answer but it doesn't address the problem. I am trying to record the games for one Big Ten school, both men's and women's teams. Before Directv changed their "on screen" software, this was a very easy thing to do. You would select the team as a favorite and record all the games. Now the system doesn't make it easy. Sure, I can record each game individually but then why do I have the option to select teams as favorites? I called Directv today and a rep walked me through the steps and said "now just the one school's games would record". Wrong! The system is still recording every NCAA Big Ten game. Plus since the Guide lists the Women's games as "Women's College Basketball" and not the team names there's no way to avoid recording every game if I select Series. I'm disappointed that this is so difficult. If I were to go away for a few days I could come home to a DVR full of games I don't care about. Thanks for your attempt at help but I think Directv is just not able anymore to do what I'm trying to do.

@jusbluffton,

 

That's a valid point that since the Guide lists the Women's games as "Women's College Basketball" and not the team names there's no way to accomplish your request for recording one team only for women's basketball.

So when will DirecTV include the function to have Womens’ sport teams selectable as favorites in the “My Teams” list?  Seems like a HUGE oversight and inequality to only list MENS’ teams!  Come on AT&T/DirecTV!
