FEATURE REQUEST FOR RECORD OPTIONS
I'm relatively new to the platform, and I noticed a gap in the DVR recording logic that feels like a big oversight: marquee sports programming.
Right now, we can record specific teams or record "NFL Football" as a whole. But marquee broadcasts like Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, and Thursday Night Football are essentially recurring weekly shows.
Because we can only select broad "NFL Football," my DVR records the main game, the ManningCast, the stat feed, and every other broadcast in sight. Two weeks in, I have nearly 90 recordings to manually sift through and delete. On the flip side, manually selecting all 32 teams just to catch weekly games shouldn't be the only alternative.
We just want to set Monday Night Football (the primary broadcast) to record as a series every week, regardless of who is playing, without capturing three alternate feeds. Even a simple option like "Record this channel Mondays at 7 PM" or standard series/episode management (similar to U-verse) would fix this.
It would be a massive quality-of-life update for sports fans. Any chance we can get this pushed by Wednesday? 😉
Appreciate your hard work and thanks for listening!
Go be great you guys, thank you in advance!!

Thanks for reaching out, @tribaljbc. To record specific recurring sports broadcasts like Monday Night Football as a series without capturing multiple alternate feeds or broad categories, please follow these steps:
- Use the program Guide on your DIRECTV remote to locate the exact broadcast of Monday Night Football on your preferred channel.
- Select the show and choose 'Record Series.' This will set the DVR to record only the series on the chosen channel, helping you avoid recording alternate feeds or broader categories. You can further refine your recording preferences to capture only new episodes.
