Recording tv shows

Currently using spectrum with 2 cable boxes. Wife records number of shows/movies for viewing later. Can she do the same when streaming Direct TV? What equipment is required to receive direct broadcasts and record shows? Our TV’s are “smart”. Do they need to be hard wired or can Wi-Fi work?
