'List" of recordings no longer works, WHY??

List on my remote no longer works. I goes to a very unhelpful page that tells me how to record. Now I need to go to Menu, Library and then scroll through recordings. This is NOT helpful when 1 button did the trick. Now we cannot access boxes where we had several episodes of a show recorded for later
