Bravesvision DVR

What streaming device?

What channel/network?

The message suggests you may be out of market for that exact game on that channel.

What is your zip code and what channel did you try to record the game on?

30518 and 645.  Definitely in market, a suburb of Atlanta.  Like 40 minutes from the stadium.  I'm using a directv stream box, I guess that's Osprey?  It's not the Gemini Air, I needed IR for universal remote.  We watched the game fine live, but then needed to step away and when we tried to pick up where we left off via DVR that was the message we received.  Had to go back to live and just miss an hour.  However, particularly with day games, we want to be able to watch recorded versions.

I wonder if the DVR recorded it somehow on the incorrect channel since the Braves channel was added at the last minute. That happens with MLB network carrying games that are also on local Rsn's

Thanks for flagging this and providing the details, @slogan19! We’d like to take a closer look at this for you. Let's meet in DM, so our specialists can further assist. Rizza, DIRECTV Community Team

It looks like my auto record is choosing to record the version on the mlb.tv free preview channel for the Braves rather than Bravesvision on channel 645.  It looks like I can cancel those and choose the Bravesvision one, but even clicking on the program on that channel in the online guide it sometimes wants to choose the mlb.tv version.

Please check your inbox; we've sent you a DM to further investigate. John, DIRECTV Community Team

Yeah, I saw it.  Just not sure why I need to call in, I mean this thread has pretty much said everything I have to say about it and it might as well be public in case anybody else has this issue.  I'm in region, live works fine channel 645, DVR didn't, my suspicion is that the DVR recorded the MLB.TV freeview version and I guess there's some kind of recorded stream restriction there.  It looks like the DVR is wanting to record the MLB.TV version of tomorrow's game as well.  I cancelled that recording and changed it to the BravesVision version so we'll see what happens.

It'd be nice if the DVR was smart enough not to record things that it won't let you play, kinda defeats the purpose of recording it.

That MLB.tv freeview ends in a few days. You probably won't have that issue after those freeview channels go away.

Some content may have broadcasting restrictions, affecting the playable version selection. Please let us know how it goes so we can look into it. Rizza, DIRECTV Community Team
