All recorded shows gone!

I have 3 HR22 HD DVRs (and 3 HD receivers) in the house on a whole home netwrok. I have access to all 3 receivers in any room on my other HD receivers as well. I also have shows set to record on the 3 different units as well. Last night when going to watch a show, all of my recording were GONE! i had about 80+ hours of shows/movies across the 3 units and all 3 were completely erased. not a single show on any box. I even went around to each unit to be sure. Any thoughts out there????

Losing all programming on all DVR's is very unusual.  First a querstion.  Do you have a device that looks like the pic in your system?  Have you tried resetting the DVR's?

I only have the 8 way multi switch. I have reset the units with no luck. I would have thought 1 would lose recordings, but not all at once.

the HDDVR's keeps a "history" of cancelled and deleted shows.  what does yours says about those programs?

You have nine tuners on the 8 way switch and that will give you problems.  If Directv installed this system call them back and have them do it properly.  If this is a DIY job, what steps did you take to not oversubscribe the system with the nine tuners?  Did you by chance add a receiver(s) after Directv installed the system?
