DirecTV Stream Recordings ONLY show the delete option ... not "Watch"

We have used DirecTV Stream for a couple of years and it works fairly well. We recently purchased new Samsung TVs and each uses the DirecTV Stream App. We have problems on both TVs when going to look at recorded shows. It quite often only gives us the "Delete Recording?" option and not the "Watch" option. It is frustrating. Does anyone know the fix?

Are you using the embedded app for the Samsung TV? The app is known to be very buggy and problematic. The best option is to use an external streaming device.

Thank you for the quick response. Yes, I am using the internal app and frankly getting away from a streaming devices was seen as a plus to getting a new TV. If it continues, I will try the device I already own. Thanks again!
