CBS shows not recording entirely as of 1/1/22

The CBS shows that I had set to record series is now recording only about 15-20 minutes in the middle of the show.  This started 1/1/22.  Only about 15% of memory is used.  This is only occurring with the CBS (it is scheduled to record on the local CBS channel).  I have deleted the series manager and went to that channel and click 1-time record.  The same result, only partial recording.  However, I can access full episodes and even save the episodes by using the on demand feature/streaming (clicking on CBS and selecting the show).  It will then play back the entire episode.  Any solutions to try to get back to the series recording so that I don't have to manually do it.  Again it is only the CBS channel.

I don’t think your DVR is only recording part of the shows, what you describe sounds like that channel is not being received for the entire length of the show. Do you ever watch that channel live? Is it dropping out? If so, there could be an issue with that channel’s feed to directv or your dish may need alignment.

CBS is not cutting off their feed to DTV during programs, that would breach the contract.
