I will try your suggestion to see what happens.

There is another irregularity as well. I DVR Tucker Carlson and many other prime time shows on FOX. The timer is set to record new and reruns for each show. It is not uncommon for the shows not to record. This does not happen on other channels. Granted I do not record the fake news channels but I have 130 timers for various shows without issue. This has been happening for the past 3 yrs.

You may be having conflicts with your record schedule. My box can only tune three stations at a time and anything else doesn't get recorded. You can go to the DVR menu, select schedule, and look into past schedules to see why something was skipped. You can change program priority in the timers section.

The DVR is also pretty stupid about using all three tuners properly. It will try to use a tv that's in use and flash a message that it's going to change channels to record. If the viewer clicks deny the record is lost. It will do this sometimes even when another tuner is available.

My Dish DVR also stopped recording Tucker Carlson. I had to set it up again twice before it would “take”. That was yesterday. I had missed Monday and Tuesday, but was able to get the 2nd showing last night.
