How do I stop the "We've paused your program" From coming on?

It is annoying, right in the denouement of a movie the screen goes black and I get this pointless message.

Such a bummer but I figured that was the case. I lost a good collection of hd movies and shows. Will especially miss my hd recording of Captain Ron.

Cloud DVR recordings

I recorded a movie on my DVR cloud from stars when I had the promotional package. Now that I no longer have stars and I tried to watch the movie that I recorded it says I have to have subscription to watch it. This seems strange to me because with other DVRs when it’s recorded you can watch it even

This has been going on for a year now, and included the loss of 3D movies.  You'd think ATT would lean on STARZ because the channel's value is about to drop with the loss of Disney content to Netflix.  No more Star Wars or Marvel Universe...

Starz and Encore on demand

What happened to the amount of movies offered on demand for Starz and Encore? I used to be able to find over 50 movies to chose from when nothing was on the channels that interested me. Now there is only one or two to chose from. This is the main reason I chose the package I did, to have access to m

DIRECTV dropping OANN?

How could you bow down to the WOK cancel culture demands to dropping OANN? They do not lie!  The "big lie of the 2020 election" is absolutely true. There is mountains of evidence of the election steal. All the misinformation comes from liberals not conservatives!  My husband and I will be

WARNING AS OF 6/2020 - USE OF THE RED RESET BUTTON (HR54-200) MAY DELETE ALL RECORDINGS

I wanted to warn all users with HR54-200 not to use the hardware red reset button. We had an outage of all local channels in my market. As I've been instructed for years by Directv support, "when trouble, do a reset." The button has been apparently reprogrammed to reset to factory defaults. I lost a

DVR offers "on demand" only when I try to record current TV shows

I've tried several times to set up recording of "Agent Carter" but instead of the screen offering "by date" "Series record" etc., I get sent to "On Demand"  I don't want "On Demand" though, I want to record these on my DVR.  Is this a deliberate ploy to make me watch on demand?  I've tried rebooting

@Catskills_Dan Thanks for pointing out that DirecTV had dropped RT. I just now read that RT is shutting down their US operations entirely. One observation, and this isn't intended for you, because you were just reporting what happened, and I benefit

The Addiction Network Commercials Interrupt Show

I like to watch Modern Marvels on H2-W (1257).  Often, an annoying commercial advertising The Addiction Network interrupts a few minutes right after commercials air.  It's as if they're not getting the time code correct. What is going on?  Who can fix this?
