Can't find The Walking Dead to record

I recently upgraded to U200 and am excited to see the new season of The Walking Dead on AMC.  But when I search for it to record on my DVR, it is not found.  I've gotten online with the AMC TV website; I can see the new season starts on 13 Oct.  I've tried searching on UVerse.com, but no luck.  I can find other TV shows from AMC, like Breaking Bad, but its as if The Walking Dead show doesn't exist.  Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Since the start of the new season is over a month away, that program is not listed in the Guide; therefore, you will not find it with a search.  The Guide only lists programming for the next 14 days.

Hi snafu59,

 

I apologize for the inconveniences with your web remote DVR. It sounds like you are still using the old site. Please, try using uverseonline.att.net. I have just tested on my side, and it everything appears to be working.

The guide has a two week window.  Anything beyond 9/28 is not showing up.

this thread is not solved at all.  It is now Oct. 12, and I search uverse guide online for Walking Dead, and all I get is Search Failed.  It will not show any walking dead episodes upcoming, even though the new season is now upon us.  I like to use the online guide to do my DVR recording, but I can't for Walking Dead.

This thread is solved. Look at channel 795/1795 in the Guide on Oct 13th at 8:00 pm CT. I can find it by searching. I don't know why you are having a problem.

i get into the online guide.  start typing walking dead, and the guide brings up suggestions... such as Walking Tall, The Walking Dead, etc.  I click on Walking Dead, and get Search Failed, please try again.

 

ok, I just figured out something else.  Nothing I search for will come up.

 

So it's not just walking dead.  My search just doesn't work at all anymore.  been using it for years.  no longer works.  I just searched on Law & Order, which is probably on 10 different channels every day of the week... and I got Search failed.

 

If I knew what channel and what time everything I want is on, I wouldn't need to search for stuff...

thanks.  I didn't know there was a newer site.  I still had the site that the uverse installer put in my browser when he installed uverse.

 

you're right, new site works fine.

+1. None of the tech support reps I spoke to the other day knew ANYTHING about a newer remote site. The repeated failure of the search function there (among several other complaints I had) has been a major headache for at least 6 months now.

David, I was having this same problem for some time also. Your solution worked for me.

But FYI, the main live http://www.att.com site still redirects me to the old site.

Steps to reproduce:
- att.com/uverse

- Hover over Digital TV, click on Access My DVR

- I'm already logged into my yahoo main under a different account.
So I get redirected to: http://uversetv.att.yahoo.com/wra/uverse/invalid_account
and get error message:

You are signed in with your Yahoo! ID: XXXX
To use this service, you must have Advanced TV service from AT&T and sign in with your AT&T ID.

- I log in and it redirects me to:
http://uversetv.att.yahoo.com/wra/uverse/

- Search input on right side of guide always fails with the error message, "Search failed, please try again."
