“Program has already aired” when trying to schedule recording two days in future

Hi, @Rockydock. We're sorry you're having issues trying to schedule a recording. What devices are you using to record? Have you tried recording on any other devices like a computer or a tablet? Arlyn, DIRECTV Community Specialist

I can not schedule a recording of a future local channel program when using my gemini box. I CAN schedule a recording using the app on my iPad.

Please reset your Gemini Device and attempt to reschedule a recording again. Visit Troubleshoot Your DIRECTV Receiver or Box | DIRECTV Support for steps. Let us know if it works. Arlyn, DIRECTV Community Specialist

I unplugged and rebooted the gemini box. That did not fix the problem.

Thank you for the update and for attempting the troubleshooting steps. We'll send you a DM to investigate this further. Arlyn, DIRECTV Community Specialist

I have nor received a DM.

We'll send you another message to help with the recording issue. You can check it on your DIRECTV Message Inbox (It's the chat icon next to the bell icon in the upper right corner of the Forums). 

To summarize, customer was unable to record local channels getting an error message "Program has already aired". Troubleshooting through reboot and resyncing the account was unable to resolve this specific instance. Customer updated their payment method information and re-entered including the billing zip code which resolved and customer can now record local channels.

If you or others are experiencing the same issue and this did not resolve it, post a new thread or mention @directvhelp in a comment. Additional troubleshooting may be required.
