Limiting number of shows in a series saved

I am amazed that DirectTV does not make it possible for viewers to limit the number of recorded shows in a series to keep. Even Xfinity has the feature..although they have other major shortcomings. Is that not possible for DirectTV to do or something they feel is not important to customers? Color me

Setting number of shows in a series to keep

I am new to DirectTV but had TIVO for many years in NJ and now TX. LOVED IT but Xfinity stopped supporting cable-cards and was switched to their system. TERRIBLE.

Limiting number of recoreded shows in a series to keep

Still records blacked-out feed of game when both options are available.

Is it really true that DirecTV Stream still has not fixed the issue of it choosing to record blacked-out game feeds when both options are available? This has been an ongoing issue for at least the last two years, and I’m shocked that it’s still not fixed. There are literally dozens of complaints abo
