Question about Directv app and DVR option

Hi, we have satellite and two regular boxes (Living Room and Bedroom) and neither are DVRs.  I just loaded the Directv app on Firestick, and when I try to record a program, it shows one of those two boxes as the DVR option, and I don't think records anything.  It doesn't really give an option to change the destination in the app.

Should I have a cloud DVR option or should I have any option to record from the app?  Sorry, totally new to this.

No, there's no "cloud DVR option" with DirecTV Satellite service. You would need the DirecTV Stream service for that.
